DescriptionGrantsExpenses
Charter School Application: Kairos hired contractors to research and write a charter application that would respond to the needs of the Dutchtown neighborhood, St. Louis's most underserved community. The purpose of the application was to galvanize energy among parents and supporters for a new charter school that would earn sponsorship and state authorization, enabling Kairos Academies to open and operate a charter public school (grades 6-12). On May 1, Kairos Academies submitted the longest, most-detailed charter application in Missouri history. Our sponsorship forum broke the state record for supporter turnout by over a factor of 2.$0$23,125
Summer Pilot: Kairos taught English and math to 60 students for 5 weeks in a St. Louis summer school. The pilot ran according to the innovative personalized learning model detailed in our charter application. In just 19 days of school, Kairos students mastered over 2 months of material according to an internationally-recognized standardized assessment. Students also reported enjoying school in our model and feeling empowered to take ownership of their education. Kairos also learned valuable lessons about educational practices that could be improved to yield even greater student outcomes in the future.$0$11,918

Kairos was also party to press releases from our charter school sponsor (Missouri Charter Public School Commission) that publicizes our non-discriminatory, open-enrollment policies. Kairos' admission policy is a matter of public record on both the State Board of Education's website and Kairos' website (through which families enroll). It is also on documentation that families receive in Kairos Academies' student lottery (randomly selected from the pool of applicants) and in their official enrollment form.
