It is my honor on behalf of the Board of Education to welcome you to the Center School District! The primary focus of our Board, Administration, Teachers and Staff is to help your student reach their highest potential. We will do this by working as partners in your student’s education. We offer a challenging curriculum focused on student achievement while also establishing positive relationships with our students and their families.   We are proud of the accomplishments of our students in and out of the classroom.

 

The Center School District has undergone a significant budget reduction process over the past couple of years due largely to lost revenues from the downturn in the economy. We have discovered new and innovative ways to continue the tradition of excellence in the Center School District. This is an ongoing process for the foreseeable future as we strive to remain fiscally responsible in these challenging economic times.

 

Center is a true “community” with a small town feeling while located in the southern half of Kansas City, Missouri. The education of all students in the Center School District is critically important to our community’s future. We continue to see significant support from our community as demonstrated by the approval of the 2009 bond issue which has allowed us to complete many deferred maintenance needs in our facilities.

 

On behalf of the Board of Education, I would like to thank our staff, administration, parents, and community for all their support in helping make the Center School District the best place to educate the children of South Kansas City. Together Everyone Achieves More!

 

Sincerely,

 

Joe Nastasi
