Researchers at MIT have questioned whether SMART goals (specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, time-bound) actually work. They suggest we might get better outcomes if we make our goals FAST (frequently discussed, ambitious, specific and transparent) not SMART.

1967 - The last year voters approved KCPS bond funding.

60 - The average age of our school buildings.

$650M - Amount of deferred maintenance at school buildings.

Isn't it time?

You might remember when the students at Sayre School District in Sayre, PA, sent our students cards encouraging them in the wake of the @Chiefs Championship Parade tragedy.

Our @KCPS_Carver students were so touched, that they put together these letters & cards in response!

Several of our schools held various student vs. staff sports events in the final days of school, which always draws a lot of smiles!
