Mexico is approximately 1.5 – 2 hours from the city of St. Louis, 2.5 hours from Kansas City and 45 minutes from Columbia, home of the University of Missouri.
CAMP FACILITIES: The Missouri Military Academy campus offers four residence halls, an academic complex, a gymnasium, natatorium, field house, athletic fields, stables, a chapel and 100+ acres of outdoor areas that are perfect for boys and young men to exercise and have fun. Tour our campus.

The afternoons and weekends offer opportunities for students to relax and to participate in activities that reinforce their confidence and academic focus. Students build academic skills as well as friendships and self-confidence. A guided study hall takes place nearly every evening with camp faculty present to assist with study time and homework. Both boys and girls are welcome in each of the camps however we will limit the enrollment of girls to that of a day or commuter student, no boarding.
