Northeast Middle School students are learning the importance of a diverse ecosystem, and what causes certain species to go extinct.

Did you know that more than a dozen KCPS schools have Girls on the Run programs?

GOTR brings 3rd through 5th grade girls together to inspire self-confidence and improve life skills.

By mixing physical activity with lessons in empathy, managing emotions, and building friendships, teams walk away from the end-of-season 5k run with a shared sense of accomplishment.

Thank you to the members of the Hale Cook Elementary community who supported the GOTR program at Golfing for Girls on the Run ⛳

If you know a 3rd-5th grade student who might be interested in GOTR, or a 6th-8th grade student interested in the program for older girls (Heart & Sole), visit www.GOTRKC.org.

Unique perspectives on some of Kansas City's favorite spots 📸

"Real World: Real Photos" is a body of work put together by Central High School art students.

They spent the year experimenting with self-portrait printmaking and went beyond the four walls of their classroom to the Anita B. Gorman Conservation Discovery Center and Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art to photograph.

These are just a few snapshots of what became a collective student photo book.
