The St. Louis Teacher Enhancement Partnership (STEP) is a collaborative effort between the College of Education and the College of Arts & Sciences at the University of Missouri-St. Louis, eighteen St. Louis public schools and St. Louis Charter School.  This partnership is funded by a grant from the U. S. Department of Education and sponsored by the College of Education at the University of Missouri-St. Louis. 

THE MISSION of STEP is two-fold.  First, to solidify a pipeline of high-quality teachers to urban schools in the city of  St. Louis, Missouri. 
Second, to increase the academic achievement levels of urban students. 

THE METHOD to achieve these goals is through our commitment to:

  • Increase school and community engagement and partnerships
  • Increase technology integration in the classroom
  • Integrate the knowledge of local community in the classroom
  • Increase supply and retention of teachers to urban districts

WE HAVE RESOURCES FOR YOU!  STEP is an information and resource network for UM-St. Louis faculty and students majoring in education and for faculty and administrators in St. Louis Public Schools.  We have activities that range from Professional Development events to technology training seminars.  Browse our website to find out more!
