The Board of Education in Missouri has come to a decision that will cause the close of six Imagine Charter Schools due to academic and financial issues. This is crucial news for the currently enrolled students who will need to seek out alternate educational facilities in the fall. There are about 4,000 existing pupils enrolled in the Imagine schools in the state.

The Kansas City movers have learned that the Missouri Department of Education has set up a transitional facility to help these students find new schools. The closure of these schools has been a heated issue, though the Commissioner of Education has stated the Imagine schools have failed to reflect performance that shows the educational quality of the centers in a positive light. They are among the lowest performing schools in the entire state.
