About the Program
Founded in 2005, ACCESS Academies transforms the challenging middle school years into a launching pad for high school success for socially and economically disadvantaged students in faith-based schools in St. Louis. Using the proven NativityMiguel model of 10-hour school days, a 10-1/2-month school year, dedicated teachers, and parental involvement, 98 percent of ACCESS graduates are accepted into college-prep high schools.
