Dear Topeka Public School District Families and Staff:
We are excited for the outstanding year ahead for the 2022-2023 school year. There were many accomplishments in 2021-2022 which included being recognized as first place for the district Magna award for the only K-12 Dual Language Program in the State of Kansas, Topeka High girl’s softball team won the state championship a second consecutive year, Topeka Public Schools launched successfully the region’s first Early College Learning program, which allows sophomores to attend Washburn full time and gain an associates degree through the partnership with Topeka Public Schools and Washburn University.
Throughout last year, we piloted the Kansas State Department of Education’s first paid apprenticeship as they invest in paying a high school student to work and learn in the technology pathway of cybersecurity. Again, this year, numerous schools outperformed the state on the Kansas Assessment Program. The schools that outperformed the state benchmarks in one or more content areas of math, English or science, include McCarter, McClure, McEachron, Whitson, French and Landon.
Topeka Public Schools offers magnet, signature, dual language and college preparatory schools for families across the district, and as a result, our scholars learn, develop and grow as global leaders in a diverse setting. We look forward to an outstanding year ahead in 2022-2023.
Thank you for the privilege to serve your family! Welcome back to the 2022-2023 school year.
