Dear Kirkwood School District Residents: Welcome to the Kirkwood School District. We

are blessed to have a generous community whosupports our work through projects such as this

School Directory, which is produced in partnershipwith the Webster-Kirkwood Times and our localbusiness community. Every community member isa true partner in the important job of educatingour children. Our public schools belong to thewhole community and we invite you to participateand to get involved.

 We take pride in knowing that every commu-nity member plays an important role in our District and we encourage you tovolunteer at your neighborhood school, attend one of our many events includ-ing performances of our award winning fine arts programs or one of our manyathletic events showcasing our talented students. If you are a senior citizen,please contact us about our “Golden Pass,” which allows you to attend mostevents free of charge.

 We are very proud of our tradition of excellence and high student achieve-

ment. The District has been named a Missouri “School of Distinction” for aca-demic performance each year since 2001. Kirkwood seniors graduating in 2014had an average ACT composite test score of 24, which ranks among the top tenin the state of Missouri. The U.S. News and World Report 2014 “Best HighSchools” list ranked Kirkwood High School in the top 5 for “College Prep” cur-riculum in Missouri. The class of 2014 had a 98.7% graduation rate, the highestin school history.

 We invite you to visit the schools to see the many renovation projects andadditions to our buildings that have been completed as part of the District’smaster facilities plan. We are excited about the recent gift of $10 million fromthe Walker Foundation to build an indoor competitive swimming pool atKirkwood High School. The “Walker Natatorium” will be one of the most mod-ern and well equipped aquatic facilities in the St. Louis area. Work on E.L. LyonsMemorial Stadium will be completed for the start of the 2014 Pioneer PrideMarching Band and football & soccer seasons. The new handicapped accessible

home bleachers, media rooms, restrooms and lighted walkway will showcase theKHS campus. The renovated Band, Journalism and Atlas classrooms at KHS arealso nearing completion. The renovations will provide additional space, storageand modern facilities for these award winning programs. The District will com-plete a K-12 iPad initiative in the fall of 2014. Students will use iPads at schooland at home as the District implements this innovative approach to maximizelearning through technology.

 We look forward to the start of a new school year on Tuesday, August 19,2014. The education of our children is our top priority and we invite you to joinus as partners in this important task. Thank you!

KIRKWOOD BOARD OF EDUCATION 2014-15

ABOUT THE SCHOOL BOARD

The Kirkwood School District Board of Education, the teaching and

support staffs, parents and community share responsibility for creating

successful schools. As elected representatives, the seven-member Board of

Education serves as the governing body for the community’s public school

system. The school board sets District policies, selects the superintendent

of schools, adopts the annual budget, and determines the tax rate.

Community participation at board meetings is encouraged, and a forum

for public comment is provided at the beginning of each meeting.

The annual school board election is held in April. Board members servethree-year, overlapping terms with two or three members elected each

 year. School board members, who receive no salary, are committed and

concerned citizens who devote countless hours working on behalf of chil-

dren and the educational interests of Kirkwood School District residents.

SCHOOL BOARD MEETINGS

School board meetings are generally held the first and third Monday

of each month during the school year and monthly during the summer.

Meetings are held in the conference room of the District’s Administrative

Services Center, 11289 Manchester Rd. at 7 p.m. District residents ar

encouraged to attend and may share their views with the board durin

SCHOOL HISTORY:Kirkwood High School (KHS) has a long,

rich history that dates back to the founding

of the Kirkwood School District in 1865.High school and elementary students attend-ed school together in a temporary building,which opened in the fall of 1866, and later inthe Jefferson Avenue School, the District’sfirst formal school built in 1869. African-

 American students attended the Booker T. Washington School, which opened in 1869on Adams near Geyer Road. In 1888, theDistrict built the Adams Avenue School netto the Jefferson School and offered a two-

 year high school program for students com-pleting the elementary grades. In 1896,Kirkwood offered the first four-year highschool program in St. Louis County; 10 stu-dents were members of the first graduatingclass in the spring of 1897. In 1922, a newhigh school was built on Kirkwood Road, thesite of Nipher Middle School today.

The present Kirkwood High School onEssex Ave. was built in 1955 on a 43-acrecampus. Both white and African-Americanstudents were enrolled to attend high schooltogether for the first time. The campusincludes the Thomas N. Keating PerformanceCenter, a fine arts complex that features an

821-seat theatre; band, art and vocal musicclassrooms; and the privately funded Walker

Commons. The campus also includes the Earland Myrtle Walker Science Center, a state-of-the-art science facility that was dedicated in2007. In addition to taxpayer support of the2005 bond issue to fund the new sciencecenter, private donors contributed to equip-ping the science classrooms through the“Pioneering the Advancement of Science”campaign conducted by the KirkwoodSchool District Foundation.

In the spring of 2014, updates to thejournalism and band classroom spacesbegan. The journalism and band spaces werelast renovated in 1995. The renovationsinclude updated technology and increasedsquare footage. The renovations also includethe high school’s Atlas program, which offerscredit recovery classes to students.

 A new physical education and sports cen-ter was completed in fall 2008. The centerfeatures two competitive gyms (DenverMiller Gym and the David Holley AssemblyHall) the David Damerall Fitness Center, adance studio, health classrooms, wrestlingroom and staff offices. With support fromcitizens and private donors through the

Kirkwood School District Foundation, a newtrack and synthetic turf were installed in KH

E.L. Lyons Memorial Stadium and ready foschool and community use in October 2010In spring 2012, the new track was dedicateas the Alvin Miller Track in honor of the 198KHS graduate, who is regarded as the besathlete in school history. In the fall of 2014renovations to the stadium bleachers will bcompleted; the renovations include accessbility for the physically challenged, nerestrooms, concession and broadcast cente

In April, the trustees representing the EaE. and Myrtle E.

In April, the District announced a

$10 million grant agreement with

the Earl E. and Myrtle E. Walker

Foundation. The grant provides

funds to build a 25-yard stretch

pool on the campus of KirkwoodHigh School. The Walker

Natatorium will be a 12-month

facility, enabling the District to

add water safety curriculum to

physical education, and the KHS

swim and dive and water polo

teams will have a place to train and

compete on campus. The skills

learned in The Walker Natatorium

 will help students maintain a

healthy lifestyle for years to come.

 A moveable bulkhead will be

installed so that swimming and

diving can occur simultaneously

and ensure all-deep water for waterpolo. The depth of the pool will

be 4 feet to 12 feet six inches.

Construction will start this

summer, and should be completed

by the start of the 2015-16 school

 year.

The Earl E. and Myrtle E. Walker

Foundation has continuously led

fundraising efforts to benefit

students of Kirkwood High School,

and this is another example of its

commitment to the children in

our community.

The Kirkwood School DistrictFoundation (KSDF) will join the

school community to establish

an endowment for The Walker

Natatorium in order to ensure the

facility is pristine for generations

of Pioneers. To get involved in

the fundraising efforts call the

KSDF office at 314.213.6123.

School History:The Nipher Middle School building was built in 1921

and officially opened in September 1922 as Kirkwood HighSchool, the community’s new high school. Before itsconstruction, secondary students attended school withelementary-age children in one of the district’s firstbuildings, a four-room brick school built in 1869 at Adamsand Jefferson. A few years after KHS opened on KirkwoodRoad, a separate south building was built in 1929 to houseseventh and eighth grade students in a junior high school.

Following the tradition of naming public schools foroutstanding community citizens, the Board of Educationchose to the name the junior high school in honor of Dr.Francis E. Nipher, who had been a distinguished educatorand professor at Washington University in St. Louis. Thenorth building housed Kirkwood High School until itsmove in 1954 to its present location on Essex Ave.

During reorganization in 1976, Nipher Junior High

School became Nipher Middle School to house Grades 6

through 8 with Grade 9 moving to Kirkwood High School.Renovations resulting from a 1993 tax/bond issueincluded construction of a two-story addition in the frontof the building to house a new library/media center,computer labs, classrooms, the main school and counselors’offices as well as technology and other buildingimprovements. In 2005, a two-part bond initiative fundedinfrastructure improvements at the school.

In November 2010, the KSD communityoverwhelmingly approved Proposition 1, a $33.5 millionbond issue to support the district’s master facilities plan.Prop 1 renovations at Nipher included the constructionof a three-story addition to house six state-of-the-artscience classrooms. The new science facility opened forstudents in the 2012-13 school year. In the summer of2013, front entrance renovations occurred to improve

building security.

The Nipher building is a designated historical landmaand its recent additions continue to reflect the origindesign of William B. Ittner, renowned school architect.

Designated as a Missouri Gold Star School, Nipher proud of its students and their achievements. Niphstudents consistently excel in academic competitions thinclude FIRST Robotics, Science Olympiad, GeographBee, math and musical competitions. The dedicated stais committed to character education and to helping students develop a sense of belonging in the Niphlearning community.

PROTECTION OF PUPIL RIGHTS AMENDMENT (PPRA)The Protection of Pupil Rights Amendment

(PPRA) (20 U.S.C. § 1232h; 34 CFR Part 98)

applies to programs that receive funding fromthe U.S. Department of Education (ED). PPRAis intended to protect the rights of parentsand students in two ways:

• It seeks to ensure that schools and con-tractors make instructional materials availablefor inspection by parents if those materials willbe used in connection with an ED-fundedsurvey, analysis, or evaluation in which theirchildren participate; and

• It seeks to ensure that schools and con-tractors obtain written parental consent beforeminor students are required to participate inany ED-funded survey, analysis, or evaluationthat reveals information concerning:

1. Political affiliations;2. Mental and psychological problems

potentially embarrassing to the student andhis/her family;

3. Sex behavior and attitudes;4. Illegal, anti-social, self-incriminating

and demeaning behavior;5. Critical appraisals of other individuals

with whom respondents have close familyrelationships;

6. Legally recognized privileged or analo-gous relationships, such as those of lawyers,physicians, and ministers; or 

7. Income (other than that required bylaw to determine eligibility for participationin a program or for receiving financial assis-tance under such program).

Parents or students who believe their righunder PPRA may have been violated may fi

a complaint with ED by writing the FamiPolicy Compliance Office. Complaints mucontain specific allegations of fact giving resonable cause to believe that a violation oPPRA occurred.

FAMILY EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS AND PRIVACY ACT (FERPA)Annual Notification/Student Records

The protection of student rights has always been atop priority of the Kirkwood School District. Thisdocument is distributed annually to all parents andstudents in order to comply with state and federalrequirements to notify the parents/guardians and eli-

gible students of their rights with respect to the stu-dent’s educational records.

In general, a student’s educational record includesany information maintained by the school district,which contains information directly related to a stu-dent. A major exception would be a personal recordkept by a staff member if it is kept in the sole posses-sion of the maker of the record and is not accessible orrevealed to any other person except a temporary sub-stitute for the maker of the record.

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act(FERPA) affords parents and students over 18 years ofage certain rights with respect to the student’s educa-tion records. These rights are:

1. The right to inspect and review the student’seducation records. Parents or eligible students should

submit to the school principal a written request thatidentifies, as precisely as possible, the record(s) theywish to inspect. The school official will make arrange-ments for access and notify the parent or eligible stu-dent of the time and place where the records may beinspected.

2. The right to request the amendment of thestudent’s education records that the parent or eligiblestudent believes are inaccurate or misleading. Parentsor eligible students may ask the school to amend arecord that they believe is inaccurate or misleading orin violation of the student’s privacy. They should writethe principal or appropriate official, clearly identify thepart of the record they want to change and specifywhy it is inaccurate or misleading. If the schooldecides not to amend the record as requested by the

parent or eligible student, the school will notify theparent or eligible student of the decision and advisethem of their right to a hearing regarding the requestfor amendment.

3. The right to consent to disclosure of personallyidentifiable information contained in the student’seducation records except to the extent that FERPA

authorizes disclosure without consent. One exception,which permits disclosure without consent, is disclosureto school officials with legitimate educational interests.

 A school official is a person employed by the school asan administrator, supervisor, instructor, or support staff

member; a person serving on the School Board; aperson or company with whom the school has con-tracted to perform a special task; or a parent or stu-dent serving on an official committee, such as a disci-plinary or grievance committee, or assisting anotherschool official in performing his or her tasks. A schoolofficial has a legitimate educational interest if the offi-cial needs to review an education record in order tofulfill his or her professional responsibility. Uponrequest, the school discloses education records with-out consent to officials of another student district inwhich a student seeks or intends to enroll.

4. The right to file a complaint with the U.S.Department of Education concerning alleged failuresby the school with the requirements of FERPA. Thename and address of the office that administers FERPA

is the Family Policy Compliance Office U.S. Departmentof Education, 400 Maryland Avenue, SW, Washington,DC 20202-4605.

5. Directory Information may be released byschool officials. This includes print and electronicpublications of the school district that, if disclosed,would not be considered as determined by theKirkwood School District as harmful or an invasion ofprivacy. This information may be released withoutprior written consent to parent and student organiza-tions for marketing purposes; such as for “buzz” booksproduced in the fall, and to outside organizationsincluding, but not limited to, companies that manu-facture class rings or publish yearbooks in the spring.In addition two federal laws require local educationalagencies (LEAs) receiving assistance under the

Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965(ESEA) to provide military recruiters, upon request,with three directory information categories – namesaddresses and telephone listings – unless parents haveadvised the LEA that they do not want their student’sinformation disclosed without their prior written con-sent. Such information is also considered a “public

record” which must be released upon demand to anperson who requests it, under the Missouri SunshinLaw. If a parent, guardian, person acting as a studentparent in absence of a parent or guardian, or the student (if 18 or older), does not want the district t

release the information listed below, they must notithe district in writing within 10 days of receiving thnotification of the information they do not wanreleased.

The following “Directory Information” may breleased without obtaining parental consent:

Student’s name, parent’s name, address, telphone number, electronic mail address, date and placof birth, grade level, major field of study, enrollmenstatus, participation in officially recognized activitieand sports, photographs, weight and height of members of the athletic teams, dates of attendancdegrees, honors, awards received, most recent prevous school attended.

The district has determined that the VoluntaInterdistrict Choice Corporation (VICC) and its officer

employees and agents are school officials with legitmate educational interests because they act for and obehalf of the district with respect to transfer studenand the transfer program, and because they seek tadvance the interest of both. A transfer studentattendance records and other educational records reevant to the student’s participation in the program oto the program itself may accordingly be disclosed t

 VICC without obtaining written consent from the paent/guardian or eligible student.

The Executive Director of Student Services hadistrict-wide responsibility for student educationrecords and, as such, is the custodian of the record
