South Tampa Microschool is committed to building a safe, positive culture of acceptance and empathy, welcoming of students from diverse racial, cultural, and socioeconomic backgrounds. Students of all means and abilities should have the opportunity to thrive in STM’s environment if it is best suited and supportive of their needs. Scholarships provide financial support for students who thrive in unique learning environments.

South Tampa Microschool strives to offer students a variety of enrichment opportunities both during the school day and afterschool, including: performing arts, fine arts, and foreign language. STM also likes to bring community partners into STM for in-house field trips and further enrichment experiences - coding, yoga, petting zoos, science experiments.This requires technology and funding to bring these programs into STM at no additional cost to STM families.

Additionally, STM students engage with a plethora of hands-on activities and projects throughout the day, which require supplies to be replenished at a rapid rate.

STM is committed to creating a high quality educational environment and that starts with the staff. We are committed to retaining staff year over year by providing them with competitive benefits and a supportive, flexible work environment.

Growth also speaks to technology upgrades and playground improvements, as well as sixth grade expansion. Our middle school will eventually be in its own building and will need substantial capital to aid this mission.
