State education board grants St. Louis Schools provisional accreditation : Stltoday

"As the Missouri State Board of Education unanimously voted Tuesday to upgrade St. Louis Public Schools from unaccredited status, members made it clear they were far from changing the district’s governance back to an elected board."

Among the quotes worthy of a grimace (from State Board chair Herschend, who is from Branson, Missouri) 
“The local elected board is what got the school district in trouble in the first place,” State Board President Peter Herschend said."
