The Kansas City Public Schools has launched a new online website to gather ideas from the community.

The KCPS Forum, is a new community engagement tool created by MindMixer, and powered by the ideas of people like you.

A video explains the purpose of the project.

The website reflects a growing effort to engage a broad set of voices an ideas from focus who can not attend public meeting, have a simple idea or want to comment on the ideas of others.

Ideas and contributions shared are seen by others and by school district officials.

Two ideas currently on the forum include reopening Hale Cook Elementary and how to organize middle school grades.

The website provides an easy way to submit other ideas. Check it out.
