Tornado Relief

On 5/16/2025, an EF3 tornado with wind speeds up to 152 mph swept through the St. Louis region, devastating residents across the metropolitan area. Among others, District scholars, educators, and families were impacted.

The St. Louis Public Schools Foundation is focused on supporting emergency supports and ongoing life supports of those impacted. We are committed to ensuring school sites are equipped with enhanced supports and services for students, educators, and families throughout the summer, including case management.

Your support during this time plays an essential role in uplifting the SLPS community as they continue to recover and rebuild. THANK YOU.
