DTC, Central Library to celebrate Crossroads Academy’s 2nd year

The Central Library, the Crossroads Academy and the Downtown Council will collaborate on a special breakfast event next week to mark the home stretch of the second full year of successful operations at the school.

The Crossroads Academy is the academically rigorous, tuition-free, elementary charter school in Downtown Kansas City. The school works in close partnership with the  Central Library, the school’s library, the Downtown Council and the Downtown Community Improvement District on many fronts.

You are invited to attend this free event at 8 a.m. Wednesday, April 16, at the library. To RSVP, click here or call 816-701-3407.

Following a light breakfast buffet, a brief program will begin at 8:30 a.m. and feature the premiere of a student-produced video about the Library, plus a song by students in the school’s new performing arts program. Remarks will be made by Dean Johnson and Susan Maynor from Crossroads Academy, Bill Dietrich, Downtown Council president, and Crosby Kemper III, Library director.
