[edit] Leadership
The current superintendent of the Saint Louis school district is Dr. Diana Bourisaw. She was appointed in July 2006, following the ouster of Dr. Creg Williams.
As the St. Louis Public School District has had ongoing problems with its elected school board, repeated failing test scores among students at most schools, financial difficulties, and a revolving door of Superintendants.
On March 23, 2007, the Missouri State Board of Education voted 5-1 to stip the St. Louis Public Schools of their accreditation and to take over its management. The vote came after angry students chanting "No Takeovers!" temporarily shut down the meeting. Under the board's decision, a transitional, three-person board, formed by state and district officials, will take over the St. Louis schools on June 15. The locally elected board will remain in place but have no power.
