After the recent reductions in staff, USD 489 would like parents to know that class sizes will increase, but on average elementary classes will have 22 students, middle school classes will have 25 students, and high school classes will have 23 students. USD 489 would like to assure parents that their student’s time spent with specials teachers, at the elementary level, will not be reduced. Elementary students will still receive the same amount of quality time enriching their educational experience with art, music, and library. At present, USD 489 has not eliminated any programs, but cutbacks in some programs will be experienced. The district’s focus still remains to provide the best education for our students, even during these challenging times for education in Kansas.
