School Leaders Doing the Work the Right Way: Building Walls between Schools and the Justice System. St. Louis Public Schools, St. Louis, Missouri
AASA, The School Superintendent's Association
St. Louis Public Schools is an urban school district of 19,299 students. The district has a predominantly Black student population with 78% of students identifying as Black, while also being very diverse with 11% of students qualifying as English Language Learners (ELL). St. Louis has a high crime rate, including a high murder rate. This trickles down to schools and impacts students. Poverty and gang activity are also issues of concern in the district. After losing accreditation in 2007, the school district made several changes to regain it in 2017. This profile highlights the school district's restorative policies and practices including: (1) Catalyst for Change; (2) Police Department; (3) Police involved Youth; (4) COVID; (5) Sustainability; and (6) Disproportionality.
