Due to the length of last night’s Board of Education meeting and our desire to ensure our community has the opportunity to hear all that was discussed, we did not produce a Board Brief video. Instead, we are sharing the full Board meeting livestream so families and community members can stay informed.
Last night, Superintendent Dr. Teresa A. Lance, alongside members of the KSD leadership team, presented “School Boundaries and New Grade Band Configurations,” a proposal focused on the future of our district’s school structure for the upcoming school year.
The proposal includes transitioning to K–5 neighborhood elementary schools and creating a true 6–8 middle school model to support students through these important stages of their educational journey.
The meeting also included discussion and a Board decision to begin the process for a resolution regarding Mark Twain, along with planned changes connected to the ongoing Facility and Boundary Study.
To hear the presentation and discussion, fast-forward to minute 39:40 in the livestream.

We appreciate the opportunity to share this proposal with the Board of Education and our community as we continue to explore what’s possible for the future of KSD111. Community input and thoughtful planning remain important as we work toward decisions that support our students, families, and schools.
Please know that communication will continue throughout this entire process. We are committed to keeping our families and community informed through ParentSquare, the district website, and our official page as updates become available.
Hope Starts Here! Hope Starts with YOU!
