CALLING ALL SLPS GRADUATES FROM 2001 TO 2003
District continues its efforts to gather information requested by state officials

St. Louis -- The St. Louis Public School District (SLPS) is continuing in its efforts to locate students who graduated between 2001 and 2003, especially those graduates who continued their education after high school by attending college, a technical school, career/job training, or military service within six months of graduation. If you graduated from a St. Louis Public School during that time, please visit our website at www.slps.org and complete our online form.

Graduates are asked to provide their current contact information, year of graduation, school attended, and any post-secondary training they received. District staff will contact the responders as soon as possible.

On Feb. 1, the District was given a deadline of Feb. 28 to provide the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) more detailed information to validate previously submitted data regarding graduate placement. Should the State Board of Education accept the data presented earlier this year, the District would likely remain provisionally accredited.

“While our deadline to submit data to the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education has passed, we continue to work towards locating previous graduates. However, despite our best attempts, we’ve had difficulty in locating students who graduated between 2001 and 2003 as many of those individuals have moved,” said Dr. Diana Bourisaw, Superintendent of the St. Louis Public Schools.
