Great schools don’t happen in a vacuum—they happen when people come together. KCPS is making real progress because of stability, vision & collaboration. I’ve worked hard to build consensus & keep kids at the center of every decision. Let’s continue moving forward TOGETHER. 🚨RT🚨

I know I've been quieter on here lately as my role has changed. I'm still trying to figure out who Elle is now that she isn't an education reporter. But I'd tell you this was important even if I were still @kcur. 1/
