EDUCATION IN THE INNOVATION ECONOMY
Wise Words with Dean Johnson, Crossroads Academy Executive Director
Opening a new school model in downtown Kansas City is as entrepreneurial as it gets.
Crossroads Academy is a shining example of what education can be in KC, and it earned its spot at #1 among all Missouri charter schools. The unique school uses municipal and community assets to create real-world classrooms, and has nearly doubled in size since opening in downtown Kansas City in 2012 – growing from 190 students to 349 students in grades K-8. As parents learn of the school’s outstanding teachers and innovative academic programs, the school has experienced increasingly long enrollment wait-lists. Crossroads recently announced their plans to open a new school, also located in downtown Kansas City, starting with 186 students in grades K-3, growing to 422 students in grades K-8.
