Welcome to the Olathe Public Schools Legislative Information website. Keeping our community informed about the work of the Kansas Legislature and how that work impacts our school district is very important to us. Throughout the legislative session, we update information here about what happened in Topeka.

In addition, you can find important links that will help you stay informed. The involvement of our community in the legislative process is vital. With that in mind, we are pleased to be able to share this information with you.

Thanks for your support.
