EWING MARION KAUFFMAN SCHOOL

Located at 6401 The Paseo Boulevard in Kansas City, Missouri, the Ewing Marion Kauffman School operates as an active, independent charter school district tailored to the educational needs of a major urban community. Serving students across two operational school campuses within a large-city setting, the district provides a structured academic pathway spanning fifth through twelfth grade. As a standalone local education agency for federal programs, the charter district offers a focused middle and high school model designed to foster academic excellence and prepare secondary students for post-secondary success.

The district serves a vibrant student body of 961 learners, representing a diverse community that includes 795 Black, 93 Hispanic, 41 multiracial, and 20 White students, alongside Asian, American Indian, and Pacific Islander scholars. To drive high academic expectations and strong student-teacher relationships, the school maintains an expansive staffing context comprising 230 full-time equivalent staff members. This team includes 194 full-time equivalent teachers and 36 support personnel, creating an exceptionally low student-to-teacher ratio that enables personalized instruction, comprehensive support services, and an empowering learning environment for every student.
