About Rossman School

Two St. Louis teachers, Mary B. Rossman and Helen Schwaner, opened Rossman School in 1917 for grades three through six on Delmar Boulevard. Today we are an independent preparatory school for Junior Kindergarten (age 4) through Grade 6 on a 20-acre campus on Conway Road, with a four-lane track, two playgrounds, wooded nature trails, and a treehouse.

We keep one class per grade, and two full-time homeroom teachers plan and teach each class together. Our 29 teachers average 17 years in education, and our student-teacher ratio is 8:1. Language arts and mathematics are enriched by art, Spanish, Latin, library, music, physical education, science, and social studies, and a learning consultant works with our faculty.

Character education centers on kindness, honesty, respect, and responsibility. Tuition for 2026-2027 is $25,095 for Junior and Senior Kindergarten and $26,530 for grades 1 to 6, lunch included, with need-based tuition assistance. Afterschool Enrichment and Extended Day care run until 5:30 p.m.
