UPDATE (March 21, 2020):
North Kansas City Schools will be closed through Friday, April 24.

Per Mayor Quinton Lucas’s announced "Stay at Home" order earlier this afternoon, our return to in-person instruction has been delayed. At this time, our plan is to welcome students back to school on Monday, April 27. This order does not impact our plans to deliver meals to students.
