School Ministries, a national corporation in Released Time Bible Education based in Columbia, SC, has announced two additions to its national leadership team. As the organization continues expanding its reach to public school students across the United States, these new appointments mark a moment in its growth and mission.
Robert Kilo – Incoming National Executive Director
Robert Kilo has been named Incoming National Executive Director of School Ministries. Officials with School Ministries describe Kilo as a servant leader at heart who is passionate about glorifying God by serving others, and is deeply committed to reaching the next generation with the life-giving truth of God’s Word. He counts it a joy to serve as husband to his wife, Leah, and father to their four children, Lincoln, Winston, Colette, and Phinehas.
Kilo describes the opportunity to serve with School Ministries as “a phenomenal opportunity to serve School Ministries and the youth of America with the infallible Word of God via servant leadership.”
Before joining School Ministries, Kilo was part of the leadership team at the Center for Christian Virtue (CCV)—a public policy organization amplifying the voices of Christians in the church, the marketplace, and education. As Senior Director of Advancement, he worked closely with Christian leaders across Ohio to build trusted relationships and substantially increase support for CCV’s mission.
Previously, Kilo held multiple leadership roles with the Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA), including State Director – Ohio, as well as directorship positions covering Northern, Northeast Ohio and Metro Cleveland, and in a board and donor development role for the Great Lakes Region.
His broader experience includes serving as a leadership consultant and board member for Cleveland-area schools and working in a government and community relations role with public schools in Cleveland. He received a Community Leader Award from the Northeast Ohio Cystic Fibrosis Foundation for his role as Co-Founder and Chair of an annual event to raise funds and awareness. He has also served families in the private sector, helping them maximize charitable giving for Kingdom impact.
Kilo is currently onboarding alongside Executive Director Ken Breivik, with a full leadership transition scheduled for the end of 2025. Breivik will continue with School Ministries as Chief Counsel following the transition.
Jennifer Kaylor – Director of Outreach
Jennifer Kaylor has been appointed Director of Outreach. Kaylor most recently served as Executive Director of Students in the Word, a Released Time Bible Education program in Georgetown County, South Carolina. Beginning as a teacher in 2017, she stepped into the executive role in 2019, leading the program through meaningful growth. Her responsibilities included oversight of instruction, operations, fundraising, and community engagement.
Under Kaylor’s leadership, the program participated in School Ministries’ pilot initiatives for curriculum and worldview assessment. She is passionate about equipping local leaders and supporting program development across the country. Kaylor and her husband, Kevin, have three children and enjoy spending time outdoors.
“I am excited about God's invitation to step into this new role, and thankful for the opportunity to serve with others in the School Ministries family,” said Kaylor. “I look forward to collaborating with so many passionate and talented people as we seek to grow Released-Time Bible Education and serve more students across the country.”
