From Community School
Community School is an independent elementary and preschool for age 3 - 6th grade, where students excel in a balanced, challenging, and joyful environment. The 7:1 student-teacher ratio allows personalized attention for each child. Last year, students outscored 95% of independent schools nationwide on standard tests.
Music, art, physical education, drama, woodshop, and foreign language complement and integrate with the academic program, creating a rich learning experience. All of this takes place on a beautiful, 16-acre wooded campus with a pond, nature trail, playing fields, and playgrounds.

Community School has been the best possible choice for our family. We could not be happier. Every morning, Head of School, Bob Cooke, greets each child with a handshake as they enter school. I love this tradition, as it truly exemplifies the nurturing aspect of the school. In this simple gesture, each child is recognized daily as a respected and important individual within the entire community – my children are known by all the children, teachers, and administrators throughout the school. The academics are fantastic, and the learning extends so much further than the classroom. My favorite part of the curriculum is the emphasis on public speaking. It’s amazing to hear the nursery students (age 3!) confidently share their birthdays to the entire lunch room during their birthday months. For dual-working families, like mine, the options for extended day and after-school programs are abundant and appreciated. Community School gets my vote as the top elementary school in St. Louis.
Community School has the greatest teachers in St. Louis! Their program is built to help kids soar! We love it!
The teachers here are great. I've had two children here (one has graduated; the other still here), with very different personalities and approaches to learning. The faculty has gone above and beyond to challenge and support both of them. The low student/teacher ratio helps too! Very good communication with teachers and the school.
