The Fulton School
The Fulton School is a Montessori school in Chesterfield, Missouri.
History
In 1994, Chesterfield Day School-St. Albans was opened in St. Albans. A program for 7th graders was initiated there in 1998. The first upper school senior class graduated in 2004, and in 2007 grades 9–12 officially became St. Albans High School. By 2008, toddlers through grade 8 merged with St. Albans High School, creating The Fulton School at St. Albans, named in honor of Barb Fulton, the long-term head of Chesterfield Day School.[2][3][4]
In 1999, a new $4.8 million campus was constructed.[5]
By 2006, the combined enrollment at the two locations was 425. The Chesterfield location served toddlers through sixth grade, and the St. Albans location taught toddlers through 12th grade.[6]
Chesterfield Day School and The Fulton School at St. Albans announced a merger in October 2021.[7] The schools were to be combined as The Fulton School at the Chesterfield location on July 1, 2022.[7][8] The campus at St. Albans was to be sold.[9]
