OUR sTORY

Morning Star School in Tampa was founded in 1958, with the express purpose of serving students with special needs. We have been welcoming elementary and junior high school students from all faiths and backgrounds for 65 years. Morning Star is the mission of the Diocese of St. Petersburg where students receive a faith-based education and personalized learning experience. We accept the Family Empowerment Scholarships for Unique Abilities, FTC and EO.

WHY MORNING STAR SCHOOL?

  • Small classes of 10-12 students who receive the individualized attention that they need

  • A caring and faith-based learning environment where each child is valued and their uniqueness is celebrated

  • A school with 60 years of special education experience
