关于我们
The Ewing Marion Kauffman School is a free, public charter school serving more than 1,200 students in 5th through 12th grades. Focused on student achievement and strong character, the school’s mission is summarized in three words: create college graduates. The school serves a student population of which 87% qualify for free and reduced lunch and 90% identify as students of color. Students are accepted by a lottery that prioritizes the six highest-need zip codes within the district. In 2019, the Kauffman School graduated its first, and founding, class of students – 100% of seniors were accepted to a four-year college or university and 72% of students will be the first in their families to attend college. The Kauffman School seeks results-driven and culturally responsive educators to join its team. We fundamentally believe that every student can reach ambitious goals when provided a supportive academic setting, when they are surrounded by teachers who have a deep belief in their potential, and when those teachers intentionally build relationships with and connect with students’ personal goals and ambitions. We show belief in every student through setting and holding them to high expectations while building relationships. We approach rigorous learning as an activity that is responsive to students’ cultural contexts and pushes them to think critically. We seek opportunities for students to engage with and respond to the world around them - both in their immediate lives and in their broader society - while being pushed intellectually at all times.

We proudly announce that Ewing Marion Kauffman School has won the Sprouts Healthy Communities Grant! The Kauffman School will partner with Sprouts Farmer's Market and their foundation and receive $10,000 for their gardening and nutrition program. Here is what EMKS plans on doing with this grant: Planting an orchard! We will be planting European pears, Asian pears, jujubes, persimmons, cherry bushes, raspberries. We will be building our pollinator garden and buying equipment for our new orchard and nutrition program. We would like to give a special shout out to Mr. Obermueller for running our garden program and winning this grant. Additionally, we would like to thank @Sprouts and @SproutsHealthyCommunitiesFoundation for investing our community to promote nutrition and gardening education! #SproutsHealthyCommunitiesDay

You may have noticed the construction on Meyer Blvd near the Kauffman School … this is to add a crosswalk and make the streets around EMKS safer before we welcome back students for the 2024-2025 school year! We are so grateful for our friends at Kansas City Public Works, City Council and BikeWalkKC whose partnership and willingness to hear our and our families’ concerns allowed this project to get underway. We hope this is the first step of several to make the streets around our school safer. Read the blog post for more! https://lnkd.in/gxHBCHfs
