School Patrol

In “School Patrol” we check in with area school districts to see what’s affecting your kids. Whether it’s a change in the school lunch or new measures to stop bullying on the playground, we’ll tell you what’s new in our schools.

Teachers, staff and administrators, if you have a good idea for our School Patrol segment, email me, Leslie Rupiper, at lrupiper@ksfy.com.
