Kansas City Schools Receive City Year Pilot Program

There might not be a better time than now to move to Kansas City if you have young children, since Kansas City schools continue to improve. Earlier this month, the school board passed plans for a pilot program to commence at Central Middle School. The pilot program goes by the name of City Year and is designed to not only help teachers at Central Middle School and Ewing Marion Kauffman School, but also to make school more enjoyable for students.

Kansas City movers were surprised and happy to hear that their children who attend Central Middle School were being greeted by faculty and staff each morning. Kansas City Chief cheerleaders, KC Wolf, and “City Year” Americorps members participate in the program. Their welcoming entrance is geared toward making students feel happier coming into school.

Member of City Year, Sarah Heuckeroth, explains that, “That’s the most important thing, that we’re able to build a relationship with them so that when we start tutoring and we start reminding them to come to school on time, it really means something instead of someone else you have to do this.”

If you are moving to Kansas City and your children are zoned for Central Middle School, know that the school was chosen for the City Year pilot. Before, students were not staying on track in terms of attendance. Now, because the program aims to make school more fun, the children look forward to going to school each day.
