TPS Kicks-Off the 2023-2024 School Year at Districtwide Convocation

Posted on 08/02/2023

On August 2, Topeka Public Schools welcomed staff to the 2023-2024 school year at the annual districtwide Convocation.

We kicked off the new school year with incredible student speakers and community partners that included Advisors Excel and Lewis Toyota of Topeka.

Through a special partnership with Lewis Toyota, two lucky winners left with brand-new cars for the school year, and a custodian received a gift of $1,000!

Here's to a fantastic year ahead, filled with unforgettable moments. Thank you, Team Topeka, for showing compassion, joy, and teamwork in starting the year. You are all an inspiration!
