In April 2025, Kansas City voters will weigh in on a proposed $474 million bond issue to improve local schools. Kansas City Public Schools hasn't passed a bond in nearly 60 years. How does the district plan to "level the playing field" for its students?

Kansas City Public Schools will ask voters to approve a more than $400 million bond proposal to repair aging infrastructure and update learning environments for students in the district.

The financial move is the next step of Blueprint 2030, the district’s long-term strategic plan to expand student opportunities like foreign language classes, instrumental music, science labs, elective courses, project-based learning and field trips.

KCUR education reporter Jodi Fortino has been covering the story. She spoke with Up To Date's Steve Kraske about the proposal.
