As we prepare to search for a new Superintendent, the school board wants your input. The Kansas Association of School Boards (KASB) has launched a community survey to gather your thoughts on what qualities our next leader needs.
Parents, staff, community stakeholders, and residents—your voice matters!

Reminder: As of July 1, 2026, official USD 503 social media accounts will no longer respond to direct messages or engage in comment-based conversations in response to the new state legislation. As a result, we will use social media as a one-way, public-facing communication tool.
Please contact the district and buildings through other communication channels, including the email addresses and phone numbers listed on our website, for assistance. 💙💛

A minor electrical fire occurred in a ceiling light fixture at Lincoln this afternoon. No students were present in the room at the time. The building was evacuated and everyone is safe. The building was cleared by the Parsons Fire Department and the school day will continue as normal.

** UPDATED ** Planning ahead just got a little easier.
We're excited to introduce our new USD 503 • 2026-27 District Vacation Planner. A quick-reference guide designed to help families plan vacations, appointments, and other activities throughout the school year.
The planner highlights extended weekends, holiday breaks, staff development days, and other key opportunities to schedule time away while helping students maximize their time in the classroom.
We encourage you to save this graphic and refer to it throughout the year as you make plans for your family.
