Our family is relocating to Kansas City this summer. I am researching public schools (elementary, middle, and high schools), gifted policies/programs, and funding. Can anyone provide insight into living in Kansas (Blue Valley or Shawnee Mission schools) vs. Missouri (Lee's Summit). I am concerned about funding cuts in both states and their effects on the future gifted education. Any comments on specific schools are appreciated. We are focused on public schools right now. Thank you
