About MISSOURI CITY 56

Description provided by the district or community — not part of the NCES dataset.

Missouri City School District is a small K-8 school district. Missouri City is in the Kansas City Metropolitan Area and is the only school district outside of the Kansas City School District to have participated in the Desegregation program, being involved from 1990 through 2002. Missouri City first received AAA status in 1987, becoming the smallest AAA school district in Missouri, and was presented this accolade by the United States Secretary of Education, William Bennett, in a ceremony at Missouri City School. As a result, Missouri City was propelled into the media spotlight and has been the focus of much media attention in the years since. Missouri City school has been highlighted in Newsweek Magazine, the New York Times and was the subject of a feature article in Reader's Digest. Missouri City School remains a progressive school district led by Jay Jackson, the Missouri City School District Superintendent and an open minded, progressive Board of Education.
