We had a good response to the callout for interest in Summer School.  Please look for more information and application/registration forms in this week’s Wednesday folder.
To secure a spot for your child, please complete both sides of the green application form and return with applicable payment to your teacher by Tuesday June 1st.

If you have any questions, please contact either Paula Busser or Elizabeth Oberle.

We will be using the Wornall Baptist Church as the main location for this program and we are excited to be able to work with the Church to offer this program to the current and incoming Border Star community.
As a reminder, the feasibility of the program does rest on being able to fill the minimum number of spots, so please get your applications in ASAP so that we can continue to make this available.

The Kansas City, Missouri School District (KCMSD) will host Summer School from June 14 through July 16 for credit recovery and additional learning opportunities in math and communications arts for invited students.

Students will be selected to attend Summer School following a careful review of their academic progress and performance data. Those students will be notified by letter within the next 14 days.

Participants will be assigned to one of the following school sites:

  • Central Academy (secondary students only)
  • Westport High (secondary students only)
  • Knotts Elementary
  • Wheatley Elementary
  • Northeast K-8
  • Kansas City Middle School of the Arts
  • Swinney Elementary
  • Lincoln College Prep Middle School

Administrators estimate that slightly more than 5,000 (grades 3-12) of the District’s 17,400 students will be selected to attend the Summer School program. Students will not have a choice of schools and must attend the school site designated by the District.

If academic achievement for all is truly our goal, this school district must ensure each of its students are performing at their grade level at the beginning of every school year,” said Superintendent John Covington. “The sole focus of our Summer School program is identifying and accelerating the development of our young people in need of additional and intense instruction. We need to level the playing field so all students can learn and that no one is left behind.”

For more information about the Kansas City, Missouri School District (KCMSD), call Public Relations at (816) 418-7420 or visit www.kcmsd.net.
