Lecompton weighs growth and crowded schools plans
Lecompton officials face student crowding as enrollment rises with new homes near Lecompton and Lawrence. A sixth grade room holds 25 students in 600 square feet at Williamstown Elementary. A plan from advisory groups and a Kansas State University consultant calls for a new middle school and converting the current one to upper grades. Public forums are set for March 31 and April 7 at Perry Lecompton High School with a district ballot bond possible if construction is approved.
