Lawrence district faces 1.7 million loss after Kansas bill
Kansas final session passes a school finance bill responding to the Supreme Court ruling by equalizing funding. Lawrence district faces about a 1.7 million negative impact, offset partly by higher local option budgets. The measure also repeals tenure rights starting July 1, enabling districts to negotiate anew. Separately, bids for bond projects are approved and district honors are announced.

Remembering Clinton Lake and the people who lost land
The Clinton Lake project displaced small farm families in the Wakarusa Valley as land sold for modest prices. Martha Parker led a campaign to save the Steele home, helped establish a local history museum on three leased acres, and documented decades of family lore, certificates, and obituaries. The lake now funds flood control, drinking water, and a thriving heritage site attracting millions of visitors annually.
