Kim Polson of Lawrence argues that declining USD 497 enrollments are linked to a weak early childhood care and education system. She notes Douglas County has lost 24 licensed facilities since 2019 and current capacity meets only 63 percent of demand. She calls for broad community investment to improve access and quality to attract families and support local schools.
