Kansas eyes education overhaul under new commissioner
Watson, appointed in July, seeks a school system responsive to communities and employers. He cites gains in reading and math but limited postsecondary advancement under No Child Left Behind. The plan adds community engagement, family involvement, personalized plans, and project based learning to move more students toward college, vocational certificates, or tech programs. Lawrence officials see alignment with local efforts and praise the district’s College and Career Center.
