Missouri Scholars Academy

Celebrating 40 Years of Magic!

40 Years of Magic MSA has been changing lives since 1985, but we need your help to keep the MSA magic alive and affordable for gifted students across the state. For the past four decades, MSA has provided academically gifted high school students with a transformative experience that nurtures their intellectual growth, creativity, and interpersonal skills.

Celebrating 40 Years of Magic // Missouri Scholars Academy

Primarily funded by a grant from the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) and the Missouri State Legislature, the program has experienced financial uncertainty during the past decade. Alumni philanthropic support demonstrates to these other funding decision-makers the decades-long value and impact of the program. Would you consider a gift of $40—or more—to help fund a student’s MSA experience?

As we commemorate MSA’s 40th anniversary, we look forward to another 40 years of inspiring and empowering future generations of Missouri’s brightest minds. Thank you for your support!
