SAINT LOUIS PUBLIC SCHOOLS The financing of the St. Louis Public Schools (SLPS) has a large impact on the quality of education the school district can deliver, but few understand the complex system determining the district’s budget. In spring 2000, FOCUS initiated a citizen-based study to research the funding streams of the SLPS. The results of the study have been presented to the leadership of the schools and were made available to the public in the form of a short report in summer 2000.
