Schools are an important asset not only for students but for neighborhoods as well. The Kansas City, Missouri School District (KCMSD) is pleased to inform you of our “Right Sizing the District” Public Forums. These important meetings will allow the public to provide direct input as we seek to improve student achievement by reducing the size of the district and redeploying key personnel and material resources.
The schedule for the “Right Sizing” forums is as follows:
- Dec. 10 – Afrikan-Centered Education Collegium Campus (Upper Campus), 3500 E. Meyer Blvd. (6:30 to 8 p.m.)
- Dec. 12 – Garfield Elementary, 436 Prospect Ave. (10 to 11:30 a.m.)
- Dec. 14 – Border Star Montessori, 6321 Wornall Road (6:30 to 8 p.m.)
- Dec. 15 – Central High School, 3221 Indiana (6:30 to 8 p.m.)
- Dec. 17 – Garcia Elementary, 1000 W. 17th St. (6:30 to 8 p.m.)
These valuable public forums will provide the public a key opportunity to share their thoughts and ideas on the school closure process. An outline of the event includes:
- A short introduction by Dr. John Covington, superintendent
- A “State of The District” overview
- Facilitated breakout sessions where participants can provide feedback
- A summary of group feedback
Let’s be sure to have a great turnout when Border Star Montessori hosts on December 14th!
