Roosevelt High School is a public high school in St. Louis, Missouri that is part of the St. Louis Public Schools. Roosevelt opened in 1925 after two years of construction and the evacuation of a cemetery for the building site. From the 1930s through the 1970s, Roosevelt served a predominantly white, ethnically German population, and among its graduates was Clyde Cowan, the co-discoverer of the neutrino particle. As a result of intradistrict busing in the 1980s and 1990s, Roosevelt served increasing numbers of black students, and it continues to be among the most integrated comprehensive schools in the district. During the late 1980s and early 1990s, Roosevelt operated a magnet school within its building as a small learning community; however, the magnet school operation shifted to Soldan High School in 1993. Despite a two-year renovation in the mid-1990s, Roosevelt has since suffered from academic and discipline issues, and its test scores and graduation rates remain below state averages.HistoryConstruction and early yearsTo relieve overcrowding at McKinley High School and Cleveland High School, the city's south side high schools for whites, the St. Louis Public Schools ordered the acquisition of property to construct a "New Southside High School" in 1922. Due to a lack of vacant land in the area, the Picker Cemetery (also known as Holy Ghost Cemetery) was acquired for the school's site, and evacuation of its graves began in October 1922. Most graves were relocated to mass graves in other cemeteries, although some remains were not relocated. During construction, neighbors reported dogs and children bringing home bones from the site, and workers reported finding jewelry and coffin handles while constructing the building. The building's cornerstone was laid on April 22, 1923, and the building was designed by R.M. Milligan at a cost of slightly less than $1.5 million.

Tower Grove Christian Academy has been serving students in the great city of Saint Louis for over thirty-five years. What started as a small church ministry has evolved into an academic institute that houses a preschool, elementary school, middle school, and college preparatory high school. Nestled at the corner of Magnolia and Tower Grove Avenue, our prime location makes field trips to the Missouri Botanical Gardens and Tower Grove Park as simple as going for a walk! But field trips aren't the only hands-on learning our students get; because citizenship is an important component to what we teach, our students particpate in a variety of service projects each year. Our student body represents a multitude of neighborhoods, ethnicities, and faiths. Some of our students commute from as far the Metro East, while others live close enough to walk to school. Some of our students are the children of TGCA graduates, while other students are first generation Americans! At TGCA we believe, wholeheartedly, that our school is a vessel to bring change to our city. Investing in our students today is an investment in our city tomorrow. From healthcare to chilcare, police force to air force, legal advice to financial advice, TGCA graduates go on to serve in some remarkable roles! Interested in learning more? Schedule a tour.
