A high school diploma is not enough, in today's economy, for students to access high-pay, high-demand jobs that transform their lives and their community. In order to prepare our students for success in a global society, the Kansas City, Kansas Public Schools is implementing a district-wide initiative called Diploma+.
Diploma+ means that each student will exit high school prepared for college and careers in a global society, and at every level, each student's performance is on-track and on-time for success.
