Kansas City Public School District voters will be deciding on a $474 million capitol improvements bond issue in April, the first time since 1967. The package includes upgrades to buildings, the addition of three new schools, and new classroom tools to help students learn. Superintendent Dr. Jennifer Collier is urging a YES vote to address the district’s needs in an urban setting. Concerns arise as the bond issue shares the ballot with a public safety sales tax extension.
