Program areas at Show Me KC Schools
Show Me KC Schools hosts an annual City School Fair in conjunction with the Kansas City Public Library every year on the second Saturday in November. This is the only school fair in Kansas City that brings together district, charter, private, and faith-based schools. Families have the opportunity to learn about 50+ elementary, middle, and high school options through one-on-one conversations with school representatives, including current parents and staff.
School Guides - Online/Printed: Show Me KC publishes an 80+ page printed school guide, which includes critical information about all of our schools, such as points of pride, application deadlines, kindergarten cutoff dates, school leaders and a detachable workbook within the guide for families to guide them on their school search journey. We distributed nearly 7,000 printed school guides to early childhood centers, libraries, community centers and partner organizations.
Navigator/School App KC - A common online application that parents can use to apply at multiple schools in the greater Kansas City area. Currently 80% of the charter schools are participating in the Navigator/School App KC.
