Mounds Park Academy is conveniently located in the northeast metro area between Highway 36 and Interstate 94 on the border of Maplewood and St. Paul. The school’s reputation of providing academic excellence in a nurturing environment attracts 500 families who live in communities throughout the Twin Cities.

With a wonderful playground, several gardens, a wooded area with a pond, athletic fields, an outdoor track and tennis courts, the 32-acre campus provides ample opportunities for outdoor exploration, education and play.

The school is unique in that it houses all students, from Pre-Kindergarten through grade12 under one roof while providing separate, age-appropriate gathering and learning spaces for the Lower School, Middle School and Upper School divisions. In this type of learning environment, all students benefit from pairing assemblies scheduled throughout the year when younger students are matched with older students for learning activities. The faculty is also able to provide a seamless curriculum by having its colleagues in all the grade levels conveniently located in the same building for meetings regarding student and academic issues.
