A letter sent to parents in the Shawnee Mission School District this week has sparked a debate about whether the district's financial crisis is dire enough to justify school closings.
Yonally, a former assistant superintendent and lobbyist for the Shawnee Mission district, said he hasn't seen anyone from the district appear before the House Education Committee in support of any of a number of bills that have been introduced this session to improve the budget situation for schools.
She said the proposed closings were driven, in part, by the district's declining enrollment, which has diminished the district's state per-pupil aid.
