Jarrett Young, Head of School at City Academy, joins The STL Bucket List Show to share how a small independent school in North St. Louis is transforming opportunities for kids and families through access, love, and education.
We cover:
- Jarrett’s journey: North STL → St. Louis Public Schools → MICDS (DSEG) → Bowdoin → Harvard → back home to lead City Academy
- Why 100% of students receive financial aid, with families paying ~$3,900 toward a $28,000 education
- The City Academy model: no buses, daily meals, extended day, and parents as true partners
- Alumni success stories: a WashU tenure-track professor, an NYU student in urban planning, and rising leaders at MICDS
- Growth plans: expanding early childhood while staying “small & special”
- The $2.8M+ raised annually to keep the doors open and accessible
