• Communications Expectations
    Our district strives to communicate from the inside out.  As the saying goes, “go to the source.” We encourage our parents and community to do the same - start with the person closest to the topic, issue, concern and then if you need to ask further questions or get more clarification, move to the next level.  And Facebook is never our first place to communicate important information to parents - we work to contact parents directly - phone, text, or email first.  We’d encourage parents and community members to do the same.

    I have a question/concern/suggestion….where do I start?
    *If your concern impacts the safety of our students and staff, please call the building principal directly (see below) and/or the Harrisonville Police Department at 380-8940.

    First Contact:  Your student’s teacher
    *Phone #s and emails can be found here -
