Ha ha, which schools? I can list Pawnee, Apache, Comanche, Somerset, Meadowbrook and Shawnee Mission East (although the latter ones were in Prairie Village, KS).
Yeah, we moved around the 'burbs a bit.
Also: another experimental "Free" school in the 1970's for one year was P.A.C.E.R.S. in KCMO, and then a partial year at a Catholic School in KCMO: Saint Francis Xavier, ha ha.
- skavi 1y agoSunrise Point Elementary, Prairie Star Middle, and Blue Valley High. IIRC, SPE is a bit newer. But Blue Valley High has probably been there since the start of the district. btw: just noticed you’re the person who wrote that color picker post. that was a fun read.
- skavi 1y agoWould you mind naming which school replaced the experimental school you described in your original post? Or the name of the experimental school itself?
- JKCalhoun 1y agoComanche Elementary was the experimental school. It is still there, but is not the same round building that I remember. I did find a number of articles about it at Newspapers.com. Around 1971 and 1972 there were a few good articles about the architecture and "Open Classrooms", "Team Teaching", etc. (Kansas City Star, of course.)
