When deciding whether or not a community is a good place to raise a family, educational opportunities for children will always be a big factor for parents. Fortunately, Kansas City and its wealthiest suburb, Overland Park, have some of the best school districts in the U.S., including Blue Valley School District.
The region’s continuous influx of families has a lot to do with the region’s impressive record when it comes to education. At Bluhawk, that means we can thank these desirable districts for fostering an incredible sense of community and increasing the area’s potential for further economic investment.
Five. That’s how many consecutive years Overland Park has topped WalletHub.com’s “Best & Worst Places to Raise a Family” list. It has actually been ranked #1 on that list (which compares 180 cities across 47 key metrics) a total of six times. And, this past year, Overland Park ranked #11 overall in the “Education & Child Care” metric.
Last year, U.S. News & World Report ranked 70 Kansas City-area public schools among the country’s best, 52 of which were newcomers to the rankings. That indicates a clear upward trend that bodes well for local businesses, as well as current and future area families.
Blue Valley School District has received numerous accolades over the years for academic achievement. Recently, Niche released its 2020 “Best Schools in America” rankings, and Blue Valley holds the top spot in three categories: Best Places to Teach in Kansas, Districts with the Best Teachers in Kansas and Best School Districts in Kansas.
These quick facts, stats and accolades show how well-rounded the Blue Valley School District is, making it one of the best school districts in the U.S.
The positive press that the Kansas City region, especially Blue Valley School District, has received in the last few years will only bring more families to the area. And it has certainly proved to recently relocated parents that they made the right decision.
