Rosati-Kain Academy secures 25-year lease to remain in Central West End
ST. LOUIS – The Rosati-Kain Academy, an all-girls independent Catholic high school in St. Louis, has secured its future in the Central West End, signing a 25-year-lease with the Archdiocese of St. Louis to remain in its longtime school building. The lease, which takes effect on July 1, marks a major milestone for Rosati-Kain Academy, one that leaders say provides long-term stability and allows the school to deepen its investment in students, programs and facilities. The Archdiocese attempted to close Rosati-Kain in 2022, but an outpouring of support from alumni, parents and community leaders quickly rallied to save the school. The effort led to the creation of Rosati-Kain Academy as an independent institution, operating under a transitional three-year lease. The new 25-year agreement secures the school's place in the city's educational landscape. 'This new agreement reflects the archdiocese's confidence in Rosati-Kain Academy's leadership, vision, and role in the city,' said Barbara Geisman, treasurer of the board of directors and Rosati-Kain Academy business manager via a news release. 'It gives us the stability we need to grow, invest in our students and programs, and move boldly into the future. Rosati-Kain Academy currently serves around 125 students from more than 49 St. Louis-area zip codes. The school is also preparing to launch strategic plan and capital campaign in the upcoming months to support scholarships and long-term financial stability. Rosati-Kain Academy will continue to be sponsored by the St. Joseph Education Ministries. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
