This is the first year we've improved in every category. And it's not just one or two schools that are achieving high results. It's across the board.

Collectively they have increased enrollment by 13.7 percent from previous year. Most of the schools that have opened are at capacity or over.

We have rules in place that limit the kinds of activities schools can organize in different sports during out-of-season times.

It's really nice when you see results. It's great. We feel really good about this. But we won't stop working until these kinds of results are an expectation and not a celebration.

There's significant improvement that happens from student to student that isn't reflected in the results.

These are blind curves on a chip and seal road and we have children and schools buses there's no reason the Shawnee County Commission should have granted the permit.
