Break with the past and restructure the school board

Do the Right Thing for Kids agrees with the Kansas City Star’s editorial, “Break with the past and restructure the school board.” We have, for several years, advocated a change in governance as a means to turn the Kansas City Public School District around. There have been many plans, new superintendents and incremental first-aid measures, and none have worked. In fact, things have gotten worse. KCPS students deserve a school district that shoots for meeting 14 accreditation standards and does not settle for 6. It’s time to face up to the need for reinventing the district.
