Tuition
The Barstow School provides the Kansas City region’s premier K-12 college and career preparatory education. Our innovative, inclusive and globally connected learning environment cultivates the potential in every student through differentiated instruction and dedicated faculty mentorship. Students are part of a diverse community that "promotes sound scholarship and gives symmetrical development to mind, body and character," our mission since 1884.
Barstow’s STEAM program uses science, technology, engineering, the arts and math as conduits to 21st century skills such critical thinking, collaboration and communication. STEAM principles are applied in daily learning as early as preschool. We offer rigorous academics, service learning, championship athletics and fine and performing arts. Barstow students are participants, not spectators.
From their earliest explorations through commencement, Barstow invests in the whole student and prepares them for leadership now and into the future.
