The Biome School

The Biome is a tuition-free, k-5, public charter school that provides a unique academic experience for children who live in the City of St. Louis. Biome students are actively involved in their own learning and are integral to the development of new ideas and ways of thinking. The school’s learner-centered, STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics) framework guides instruction across disciplines and provides students with rigorous and holistic academic experiences. The learning environment, characterized by high expectations, differentiated instruction, relentless encouragement, and student support is critical to the academic, social, and emotional progress of Biome learners.

Teachers within and across grade levels collaborate with one another to ensure that all Biome learners experience a wealth of opportunities and activities that promote understanding of the content, support their unique needs, and stimulate their interest in learning.
