Which Academy Fits Your Family?

Two academies. One standard. The same academics, structure, and standards — built around two different sports, at two of St. Louis' premier facilities.

Side by Side

Identical at Both Academies

Whichever door you walk through, the TPH St. Louis standard is the same.

Academics First

Real, Missouri-certified EYC teachers, the Edmentum platform, and six layers of academic support — the only sports academy in Missouri with an EYC Academy partnership.

Full-Day Structure

Academics, sport training, and strength & conditioning inside one structured school day — no evening academics, no double-ups with club schedules.

Your Club Stays Yours

Neither academy is a team. Students stay with their own clubs and train in their own bubble during the day.

Health & Safety

CPR/First Aid trained staff, SafeSport training, background screening, concussion protocols, and on-site Mercy support at both campuses.

Accountability

TPH Attendance daily check-ins, academic eligibility standards, weekly family updates, and semester development reviews.

Character & Leadership

Mentorship, guest speakers, community service, leadership programs, and the traditions that make an academy year unforgettable.
