About Navigate STL Schools
Navigate STL Schools is program of United 4 Children focused on helping families learn about the local school system and the school options available to them.
Our Story
Finding the school that will help each child succeed is a daunting task. St. Louis families have to gather and sift through various bits of information, weighing the value and reliability of one piece against another. This puts a lot of responsibility on families to conduct a school search and unfairly disadvantages those with limited time and resources.
In 2014, local parents built an online school guide called STLCitySchools with the aim of working collaboratively to give all parents fair access to school finding information, resources, and support.
In 2019, a non-profit organization was formed to build upon these efforts. Working with parents, educators, and community organizations, we designed and launched the first-ever mobile school finder with a focus on increasing equity of access to information. The school finder is part of a larger effort to ensure all St. Louis families can find and access a school that enables each child to thrive.
