# NKC School District Board of Education Meeting - 10/13/26 (Part II)

The North Kansas City Schools Board of Education meeting on October 13, 2026, included staff recognition, approval of the meeting agenda and a one-item consent agenda, and a workshop on college and career readiness quality indicators. District staff described a continuous-improvement framework for evaluating the four career pathways—Public and Human Services, Business Leadership and Entrepreneurship, Health and Wellness, and Design, Innovation and Technology—using academic, attendance, discipline, site-visit, student, staff, and employer input. A revised evaluation of Public and Human Services is planned for January, with the pathways reviewed on a rotating four-year cycle and curriculum or pathway changes considered if evidence indicates they are needed.

The presentation noted that Connected, an outside organization, had supported development of the indicators, but the transcript identifies no related contract, spending amount, vendor selection, or procurement action. No procurement-related vote or budget allocation was identified; the board’s recorded votes were approval of the agenda and consent agenda.
