Who we are:

KIPP St. Louis is a part of a national network of free, open-enrollment, public charter schools offering a choice to families and children in St. Louis city. As the largest charter school system in the city, we are driven and committed to our mission, vision, and equity statement.

Mission:

Together with families and communities, we create joyful, academically excellent schools that prepare students with the skills and confidence to pursue the paths they choose—college, career, and beyond—so they can lead fulfilling lives and build a more just world.

Vision:
Every child grows up free to create the future they want for themselves and their communities.

KIPP St. Louis currently educates over 2,000 students and at full growth, we will educate nearly 3,600 students and hundreds of alumni. Today, our St. Louis network consists of two middle schools, three elementary schools, and a high school.

At KIPP St. Louis, we believe every moment in a child’s day should be filled with growth, curiosity, and joy—even before the first bell and after the last! Our Before & After Care Program is all about extending the magic of learning beyond the school day in a safe, structured, and fun environment where K–4 students can thrive—academically, socially, and emotionally.

As the Site Coordinator, you’ll be the heartbeat of the program—leading daily operations, building joyful routines, supporting staff, and connecting with families. You’ll help create a space where every child feels seen, supported, and excited to be there.

Reporting to the Before & After Care Manager, this role also plays a key part in advancing KIPP St. Louis’ community work—breaking down barriers to access, fostering belonging, and embracing culturally responsive practices that reflect the brilliance of our kids and community.
