ACCESS Academies

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.

The ACCESS Graduate Support Program provides tutoring, mentoring, tuition assistance, counseling, and other forms of assistance to graduates through their high school years. As a result, 99 percent of ACCESS students graduate from high school on time and 94 percent are admitted to college.

The ACCESS Academies middle school program is found at:

  • Most Holy Trinity Academy at 1435 Mallinckrodt St.
