A MESSAGE FROM
RANDY LOPEZ
PRESIDENT, KCKPS BOARD OF EDUCATION
I have the honor of serving as President of the Board
of Education, and it is a privilege to present to you the
Kansas City, Kansas Public School’s Annual Report. On
behalf of my KCKPS Board of Education colleagues and
the entire district leadership and staff, I invite you to
read and enjoy these stories of triumph, celebration,
and challenges met.
I hope you see yourself in these narratives, points of
pride data, photos, videos, and media-rich web content
and realize that YOUR actions supporting the KCKPS
community also strengthen and empower the wider
community. As you consume these narratives, I ask
you to imagine a horizon where you continue to walk
alongside the KCKPS mission and vision as we move
toward more extraordinary accomplishments and
outcomes. This journey is a two-way street. Therefore,
as a school district, we seek to elevate your business,
civic, and cultural endeavors because your success makes us better!
I 昀椀rmly believe that our Wyandotte County/KCK community involvement and engagement can
continue transforming our schools into thriving centers of learning and growth. Our children
deserve the best education possible, and your active participation can make that a reality.
If we want our students to see and experience what a growth mindset entails, the community
must also be an example of that progress. The momentum created by your commitment
to continuous improvement in your neighborhoods, businesses, and families will cascade
throughout the school system. Our students will enter their educational journey with a desire
to learn and a curiosity for the prosperity ahead of them.
Together, we can make a lasting impact on our community’s future and our students’ success.
Your participation is the mortar that holds our
endeavor together.
Together, we are building a beautiful legacy!
KCKPS Board of Education
