The St. Louis Islamic Center (STLIC) is a Bosnian Islamic organization and mosque in St. Louis, Missouri, founded in early 2010. STLIC is part of the Islamic Community of North America Bosniaks (ICNAB) and it was founded due to the growing need for organization of the already matured community of Bosniaks in St. Louis. Members of STLIC established an institution that will work, together with other Bosniak institutions, to protect Bosniaks from complete alienation from religion and their tradition, with a specific emphasis on programs that will preserve the youth from complete negative assimilation. It is also focused on the religious and moral regeneration of Bosniaks in St. Louis and further.

Mehlville School District

The Mehlville School District, officially the Mehlville R-9 School District or Mehlville R-IX School District, is a public school district based in south St. Louis County, Missouri. It serves the unincorporated, census-designated communities of Mehlville, Oakville, Concord, and Lemay. It's offices are presently located on Mehlville High School's campus, with plans to eventually move into a vacant office building just north of the campus. The district formally began with the first graduating class of Mehlville Senior High School in 1930. The district as we know it today first consisted of smaller, independent educational entities working under a feeder school system.In the 1950s and 60s, the state government of Missouri began to combine the thousands of small, rural schools into larger districts. So, in October 1951, the Mehlville, Oakville, Point and Washington districts consolidated their schools into a single, reorganized school district, which became the modern Mehlville R-9 School District. Years later, the district dropped the R-9 title from its name, becoming the Mehlville School District. The state Department of Education, however, continues to refer to the district as "Mehlville R-9." or "Mehlville R-IX."After a rapid increase in enrollment of elementary and secondary students as a result of the increase of the area's population, bus transportation was introduced in 1951, and the district was forced to construct more educational facilities to meet the growing enrollment. Schools like Bierbaum and the old Bernard Elementary were built for this exact purpose. In 1956, the district received the official title to 45 acres formerly part of the Veterans Administration Hospital Reservation at Jefferson Barracks; the land is now home to Beasley Elementary. On May 11, 1964, the district voted to annex the Jefferson Barracks School District, acquiring what is now know as the Jefferson Barracks Building and numerous smaller facilities. In the mid-to-late 1960s, the district continued to expand, constructing Trautwein and Wohlwend Elementary in 1964 and 1969, respectively. Oakville Senior High School was established in 1970 due to overcrowding at Mehlville High School.
