ABOUT THE SCHOOL BOARD The Kirkwood School District Board of Education, the teaching and support staffs, parents and community share responsibility for creating successful schools. As elected representatives, the seven-member Board of Education serves as the governing body for the communitys public school system.

Community participation at board meetings is encouraged, and a forum for public comment is provided at the beginning of each meeting. The annual school board election is held in April. Board members serve three-year, overlapping terms with two or three members elected each year. School board members, who receive no salary, are committed and concerned citizens who devote countless hours working on behalf of children and the educational interests of Kirkwood School District residents. SCHOOL BOARD MEETINGS School board meetings are generally held the first and third Monday of each month during the school year and monthly during the summer. Meetings are held in the conference room of the districts Administrative
Services Center, 11289 Manchester Rd. at 7 p.m. District residents are encouraged to attend and may share their views with the board during time allotted at the beginning of regular meetings.

School became Nipher Middle School to house Grades 6 through 8 with Grade 9 moving to Kirkwood High School. Renovations resulting from a 1993 tax/bond issue included construction of a two-story addition in the front of the building to house a new library/media center, computer labs, classrooms, the main school and counselors offices as well as technology and other building improvements.

Keysor Elementary School first welcomed children in September 1930. The school was named for Judge William Winchester Keysor, a prominent Kirkwood citizen and president of the school board in the early 1900s. Designed by renowned school architect William B. Ittner, the building has been expanded several times through additions in 1938, 1949, 1954, 1987 and, most recently, 2012. Renovation resulting from a tax/bond issue in 1993 included technology and building infrastructure improvements. In 2005, a two-part bond initiative funded infrastructure improvements at Keysor. In November 2010, the KSD community overwhelmingly approved Proposition 1, a $33.5 million bond issue to support the

districts master facilities plan. Prop 1 funded improvements to Keysor that included construction of a three-story addition of approximately 30,000 sq. ft. to house classrooms and a gymnasium, renovation of 15,000 sq. ft. of the existing building, and site safety and traffic flow improvements. Work was completed in the fall of 2012, allowing Keysor to welcome all of its kindergarten students and families to their home school. On May 28, 2013, Keysor officially dedicated their Project IDEA landscape for learning, a new outdoor learning and play space on roughly 1.5 acres on the west side of campus. Project IDEA, which stands for Imagination, Discovery, Exploration and Adventure, is an inclusive space with various play structures plus a walking path, garden lab, soccer field, stage area, and other features that support creative learning and a respect for the environment. Designed with students and community members in
mind, the project was funded with support of the Keysor PTO, private donors, and community foundations and grants. Keysor is proud of its students and staff for their consistent focus on learning and achievement. It was named a Missouri Gold Star School by the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education in 2011 and 2013 and has earned Gold Level recognition for efforts with school-wide Positive Behavior Support. Students and staff adhere to Keysor Pride expectations being respectful, responsible, honest and kind. Through various efforts, Keysor is intentionally working to develop in students a sense of connectedness to nature and a responsibility to contribute in positive ways to our community and a global society. In partnership with families, Keysor works each day to develop children who are good students and good people.

School History:
Prop 1 is funding improvements to North Glendale that include the construction of a 30,000 sq. ft. three-story addition consisting of classrooms, a gymnasium and a cafeteria as well as site safety and traffic flow improvements. The cost of the North Glendale improvements is approximately $6.3 million. Work on the project began in June 2010 and was completed in the fall of 2012. North Glendale welcomed all its kindergarten students to their home school in August 2012. In 2013, a new library was created in the old gymnasium area, and the former library was converted into approximately 2300 square foot of additional classroom space. The school often serves as a community focus for its namesake city of Glendale. The school and the city have established a strong partnership for the purpose of combining resources to benefit children and instruction. In
2010, the Kirkwood School District, North Glendale PTO, and the city of Glendale collaborated to build a new school playground and to create a school/community park area. North Glendale School is proud to be a school where teachers and support staff are dedicated to doing what is best for students. The school has set high academic and behavior expectations for all. At North Glendale, students and staff honor this school pledge daily: As a learner at North Glendale I will be: cooperative, respectful, responsible, honest and I will persevere. Through the efforts of a supportive PTO and the many parents, university practicum students, high school students and senior citizens who regular volunteer, North Glendale has established a nurturing, welcoming learning community in which all children can learn and grow.
Selling in the community I love since 1990. Helping Kirkwood families make the right move and personally seeing you thru to closing is what I do best.
