About BELIEVE Schools
BELIEVE Schools is a network of public, tuition-free, high-performing early college and career high schools serving students in Indianapolis and St. Louis. We are committed to empowering the next generation of young adults.
At BELIEVE, we are proud of our students’ academic success—including a college acceptance rate that exceeds 95%—but what matters, even more, is who our students become. We are graduating self-aware, independent, and purpose-driven young adults who are equipped to make impactful changes in their local and global communities.
The BELIEVE experience is rooted in relationships, love, and a deep sense of belonging. Our schools are intentionally designed to feel like family, where every student is seen, known, and supported throughout their journey.

At BELIEVE, We're All About High school.
Unlike many other school networks, BELIEVE Schools is intentionally focused solely on high schools. This focus allows us to build deep expertise in what makes high schools truly impactful for students. Our campuses in Indianapolis and St. Louis are designed to offer a best-in-class college-preparatory education—blending the close-knit, relationship-driven feel of a small school with the robust programming and opportunities of a traditional high school experience.
