Join Superintendent Cole at your school 

Aug. 12, 2026 / What do you love about your school? How can we better serve your school, your student, and your community?

For Superintendent Cole, the first 100 days as superintendent are about listening to the people who know their schools best, learning from their experiences, and working together to build a stronger future for every student.

KCSD welcomes students, families, staff and community members to join the conversation. Let’s listen, learn, and lead together.
