Other organizations at this address

1 other organization in the IRS Business Master File lists the same street address. matched by us

We match the street line and ZIP code as the IRS gives them, ignoring case and outer spaces and nothing else, so "AVE" and "AVENUE" count as different streets and this list can miss some. A shared address can mean related organizations or a shared office, but it can also be a registered agent, a mail drop or a service provider holding mail for unrelated clients. It is not, by itself, evidence that two organizations are connected.

Mission and programs · 2024

Primary exempt purpose

Provide college preparatory tutoring and life skills training for K-12 homeschooled students.

  • Our #1 expense is payments to our tutors and support staff. Tutoring sessions are held three days per week, increasing accessibility for the homeschool community. Tutoring sessions meet once or twice per week, allowing students valuable time with tutors and also teaching time management. Tutors are employed based on their unique skills to provide a high-quality program to the homeschool community. Berea Academy utilizes a traditional school year, beginning in September and ending in May, with the year divided into two semester blocks. The entire format is designed to provide the homeschool student a group learning experience to enhance their home learning environment.

    Expenses $120,323

  • Our #2 expense is for supplies. These include non-consumables such as curriculum/books, white boards, computers, projectors, copiers, tables, and chairs, as well as consumables such as cleaning supplies, writing utensils, paper, toner, whiteboard markers, ID tags, etc.

    Expenses $11,006

  • Our #3 expense is rent and liability insurance. Berea Academy meets in Southgate Church, a centrally located facility with convenient highway access. Berea Academy's student population comes from St. Louis County, St. Louis City, St. Charles County, Jefferson County, and Franklin County in Missouri, as well as areas of Illinois. Our central location provides the opportunity for homeschoolers from across the region to build relationships socially and academically in a safe and secure environment.

    Expenses $7,274

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

As filed, from the IRS e-Postcard file of 2 November 2026. The IRS publishes only each organization's most recent postcard, so earlier years are not shown. A 990-N carries no financial detail. The postcard also gives the principal officer's address, which is not shown here.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Grants received

No itemized grant names this organization as a recipient. Only grants over $5,000 are itemized, and only by filers of the full Form 990.

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
