Board of Education St. Louis Quick Answer

The official local school board is the Board of Education of the City of St. Louis, connected with Saint Louis Public Schools. Use the SLPS Board of Education page for board members, board policies, meeting links, committee records, livestreams, work sessions, board elections and public governance resources.

Saint Louis Public Schools lists its district office at 801 N 11th St, St. Louis, MO 63101, with the main phone number 314-231-3720. This office can help with general routing, but board meeting dates, agendas, minutes and livestreams should be checked online first because they can change.

What This St. Louis Board of Education Guide Covers

Office and contact

SLPS Office Address, Phone Number and Visit Tips

Saint Louis Public Schools lists its district office at 801 N 11th St, St. Louis, MO 63101, with main phone number 314-231-3720. Use this for general district routing, but use the specific official page first when your question is about a board meeting, agenda, transcript, transportation route, registration, job application or public records request.

Meetings

St. Louis Board of Education Meeting Calendar: Regular Meetings, Work Sessions and Committees

The SLPS meeting portal separates meeting types such as regular business meetings, special board meetings, committee meetings, retreats and recent meeting records. The meeting schedule page explains that agenda-linked meeting names appear when the agenda is available to the public.

Work sessions are a separate user intent. The official Work Session Calendar page says the Board of Education of the City of St. Louis typically meets on the 4th Tuesday of each month at 6:30 PM for work sessions. Still, always verify the current entry because meeting dates, rooms, formats and public access details can change.

1

Open the meeting portal

Start with the official meeting schedule so you see current, upcoming and recent entries.

2

Choose the exact meeting type

Regular business meeting, work session, special meeting and committee meetings are not the same.

3

Open the agenda if available

Agenda-linked meeting names can show what will be discussed before the meeting.

4

Use minutes after approval/posting

Minutes are the better record after the meeting; livestreams are useful for context.

Agendas and records

SLPS Board Agendas, Regular Business Meeting Minutes and Committee Records

Use the Community HighBond meeting portal for public agenda access and meeting records. Use the Regular Business Meeting Minutes page for posted minutes, the Work Session Meeting Minutes page for work-session records, and the BOE Committees Calendar, Agendas & Minutes page for committee-level work.

Record typeUse it forPractical note
AgendaPlanned meeting items before action.Open through the meeting portal near the meeting date.
Regular meeting minutesApproved or posted regular business meeting records.Minutes are not the same as a livestream or a community comment.
Work session minutesWork session discussion and posted work-session records.Open Work Session Minutes.
Committee recordsGovernance, audit, real estate, budget and legislative committee work.Open Committee Records.
Do not mix these up: Agenda means planned items. Minutes mean recorded/approved board record. Committee records are narrower than full board business meetings.
Livestream and video

St. Louis Board of Education Live Streams and Previous Meeting Recordings

The official Virtual BOE Live Streams page is the correct place to check for live streams and prior live-streamed meeting recordings. It also points users toward agenda access so viewers can follow the exact item being discussed.

Watch SLPS Board / District Video

Board members

St. Louis Board Members and Current Roster Warning

The official Board Members page is the safest source for current names and roles. As checked for this rebuild, the page listed Dr. Karen Collins-Adams as President, AJ Foster as Secretary, Brian Marston as Vice President, and also listed Donna Jones, Dr. Robert S. Harvey, Emily Hubbard and Tracy Hykes.

President

Dr. Karen Collins-Adams is listed as President on the official board member page.

Secretary

AJ Foster is listed as Secretary.

Vice President

Brian Marston is listed as Vice President.

Members

Donna Jones, Dr. Robert S. Harvey, Emily Hubbard and Tracy Hykes are also listed.

Roster caution: Board roles can change because of elections, vacancies and appointments. Verify the official board member page before writing a letter, news post or public comment.
Calendar intent

SLPS School Calendar vs St. Louis Board Meeting Calendar

The SLPS Calendar page is for school-year dates, district events and family planning. The board meeting calendar is for public governance meetings. This is a common search-intent problem: a parent looking for the first day of school should not use the board agenda portal, and a resident looking for public comment should not use the student calendar.

If you need…Use thisWhy
First day, holidays, school events, district datesSLPS CalendarThis is the family and school-year calendar route.
Board meeting date, agenda or minutesMeeting portalThis is the public governance and agenda route.
One school’s open house or eventIndividual school websiteCampus-level events may not always be obvious on the district calendar.
Weather and emergency schedule changesInclement Weather GuidelinesEmergency updates can affect school schedules and district operations.
Parent portal and registration

SLPS Focus Parent Portal, Student Registration and Login Safety

SLPS links Focus Parent Portal from its official site. Parents should start with official SLPS links before entering credentials, student IDs, address information, transportation needs or registration details. The Focus Parent Portal is not the same as a board meeting portal.

For registration, use the official SLPS registration path. Keep proof of address, guardian information, student records and transportation needs ready, but do not submit private documents through unofficial websites or copied links.

Credential safety: Do not enter Focus login, student ID, guardian data or registration information on a website that is not connected from SLPS.org or the official Focus domain.
School search and magnet intent

St. Louis School Search by Address, Magnet Schools and School Choice

Some users search “Board of Education St. Louis” when they really need to find a neighborhood school, magnet school application route or school-choice information. The City of St. Louis provides a school search by address, while SLPS provides district school and magnet school resources.

For magnet schools, application windows, Focus application steps and eligibility rules, use the official SLPS Magnet Schools page. Board meeting pages are not the right route for a student placement application.

Transportation

SLPS Transportation, Zum, Bus Stop Help and Address Records

SLPS transportation information is separate from the Board of Education meeting pages. Use the official Transportation page for Zum Services, contact information, school information by address, bus stop change requests, field trip forms and student badge replacement routes.

1

Update Focus first

Transportation details are often connected to student address and registration records, so keep parent portal information current.

2

Use Zum when SLPS directs you there

Zum-related information should be accessed from SLPS transportation pages or official parent instructions.

3

Use official forms for changes

Do not assume a student can change stops without an official request or district approval.

4

Call the school for same-day safety issues

For urgent dismissal or pickup issues, the school office may need to know immediately.

Records and privacy

SLPS Transcripts, Sunshine Law Requests and Student Privacy

SLPS student transcripts and Sunshine Law requests are different. A transcript is a student record, while a Sunshine Law request is a public-records route. Do not mix these paths, and do not send private student records through an unofficial guide site.

Request typeUse this routePrivacy note
Transcript or student recordStudent TranscriptsUse official student record procedures only.
Public record or district documentSunshine Law RequestsDescribe the public record clearly; do not submit private student details unnecessarily.
Board agenda or minutesMeeting PortalStart with public meeting records before making a formal request.
Student-record warning: Do not send birth certificates, IEPs, medical records, disciplinary files, transcripts, passwords or guardian documents to unofficial websites.
Employment intent

SLPS Careers, Job Openings, Benefits, Salary Schedules and Applications

If you searched for St. Louis Board of Education jobs, SLPS jobs, teacher salary, salary schedule, substitute jobs or school district employment, start with the official SLPS Careers / Human Resources pages. SLPS links job openings through Nimble, plus job descriptions, benefits and salary schedules from the district site.
