What are the KCK school district’s strengths and what areas need improvement? How should the district prioritize the use of federal ARP and ESSER funds it receives to address COVID-19 related funds?
The school year is underway, and these are just a few of the questions Dr. Anna Stubblefield, KCK superintendent, would like to hear residents’ thoughts on during her upcoming “Listening and Learning” sessions.
The sessions allow parents, students and the public to share their ideas and suggestions related to raising the bar of academic achievement for all students.

“I truly believe in asking questions, listening and learning to understand ‘the story’ prior to charting the course,” said Superintendent Stubblefield said.
“Through the listening and learning tour, I hope to identify areas that we can build on, as well as areas that will need intense focus for improvement. I also will leverage these sessions to get input on how we will allocate ESSER and ARP dollars.”
Guests will be seated around a table to encourage dialogue and to engage the diverse voices in a conversation about the present and future of KCKPS, according to a spokesman. Translation services will be available, and masks will be required during the duration of the sessions.
