This summer, Boys and Girls Club of Southeast Missouri has its summer camp at Prodigy. Our first 10 years as a school were spent being hosted by a handful of gracious churches. We are so blessed that God has brought Prodigy to a place where we get to return the favor, in a small way, by sharing our campus. We couldn't be happier to play a small role in helping realize BGC's vision to "...ensure that the children in our community get the future that they deserve. A future filled with hopes, dreams, and no fear."

Exciting news for homeschooling families in the Cape Girardeau area!

This fall, Prodigy Leadership Academy is launching The Prodigy Bridge — a two-half-days-a-week enrichment program designed specifically for homeschool students in grades 1 through 8.

Bridge students come to our 32-acre campus on Tuesday mornings and Thursday afternoons, joining a dedicated group of Bridge peers for:

All-school worship
Spanish language instruction
Agriculture and outdoor learning
Creative arts and music
Physical education
Project-based learning
Lunch on the hill

Projected enrichment classes for the 2026-27 school year include agriculture, music, Spanish, art, physical education, and project-based learning.

You remain the primary educator at home. We are just part of your team.

Applications are open now at https://bit.ly/4dL6VJL

When applying, select your child's grade with a "b" at the end to indicate Bridge enrollment. For example, a 3rd grader would select "B03."

Our website is currently being updated and will reflect the new program soon. For additional details, see the links in the comments below. You can also reach us at [email protected] or (573) 803-1338. We would love to connect!

We're so grateful to God to have completed our seventeenth year! We're grateful for every student, teacher, family member, and supporter who made such an amazing year possible. And finally, we're grateful for all of the seen and unseen ways that God worked in our students this year, forming them into young people who pursue Him, love learning, value relationships, explore, serve, and innovate. Have a great summer, everyone!☀️

Part 1: Field Day!

I mean, just look at those faces! Our PTO never fails to put on an awesome field day. The students had a BLAST. It was such a joy seeing them compete in the various games and races, and then enjoy the rest of the fun that was set up for the afternoon.

Some lessons can only come from people who lived them.

Our high school students recently interviewed a panel of Juden School alumni who attended the one-room schoolhouse right here in Cape Girardeau in the 1940s and 50s.

They covered everything from the smell of hot lunch in a one-room schoolhouse to the weight of living through some of the most turbulent decades in American history.

Our students did it all: set designers, camera operators, interviewers, note takers, sketch artists, and a group who made chicken noodle soup from scratch (with Prodigy-raised chickens) to serve their guests afterward.

PLAyfest 2026 was AMAZING!!! What was your favorite activity or food truck? Comment below ⬇

We're so grateful for our super-hardworking PTO and everyone who played a part in making the event possible; and we're grateful to our Cape Girardeau community for showing up to celebrate PLAy together!

It couldn't have been better. The weather was perfect, and we even broke our PLAyfest-rainy-day streak (well, it did sprinkle just a little bit - but we're not counting that!)
