Thomas Jefferson School, a co-educational, non-sectarian, independent day and boarding school located in suburban St. Louis, Missouri, educates a purposefully diverse and deliberately sized group of academically talented students spanning grades 7-12.
Thomas Jefferson School is committed to enrolling a purposefully diverse and deliberately sized cohort of academically talented students in grades 7-12. In our nurturing boarding and day community students embody our mission by "developing a responsibility for their own learning and a desire to lift up the world with beauty and intellect."
A classical liberal-arts approach to education is the basis for the Thomas Jefferson School curriculum. Students immerse themselves in the fundamental college-prep areas of English, math, language, science, social studies, and art, choosing electives in certain areas as they get older, but sharing a core educational experience with peers across all grades.
At Thomas Jefferson School you are more than a resident, you are a part of our family. Learning to live alongside your peers is an invaluable life skill, and essential one in preparing for college and beyond.
There are many ways to give to Thomas Jefferson School. Talent and time are valuable commodities, and TJ needs and appreciates yours. When you support TJ's efforts financially, you help us to attract, retain, and feed the appetite of the most curious and and capable minds.
