2006-2007 Articles

Each week, Dr. Jill Shackelford, Superintendent of Schools, writes a column that is published in the Kansas City, Kansan. Her goal in writing this column is to help members of the community in Wyandotte County understand more about the Kansas City, Kansas Public Schools (KCKPS), our achievements, and our goals. Specifically, Dr. Shackelford is hoping to Strengthen Our Community Connections, in order to help us reach our 2010 Goals. Those columns are posted below:
