@RandyOliver14 and I had a fantastic surprise reunion!! Both of us exploring how Advanced Manufacturing can change the landscape of public education. And change the trajectory of our grads. #moretocome. @kcpublicschools so excited about the dream.

KCPS looks to “Pass the Torch” by awarding scholarships to graduates wishing to become our next generation of enthusiastic educators, counselors, or other career professionals working with young people in the school setting. Apply today at bit.ly/3LPlLmD

Yep!

Building Sustainable Manufacturing Programs Summit was fantastic! Advanced Manufacturing labs at KCKCC outstanding! Robotics, Electrical, systems Integration, Machining, and much more.

We care deeply about our students, staff, their families, and the surrounding community. We work hard every day to give the best opportunities to all children in Kansas City, which is why we've compiled a list of helpful webpages & resources. Learn more at kcpublicschools.org/families

I found this quote by @chrisemdin. Students need to feel safe. They need to feel safe in all the categories, for speaking, imagining, failing, trying, being seen, etc. #MBU373
