I have taught in Kansas for twenty-five years, and things have changed considerably in the last six years, but I understand that is true across the nation. Our state set challenging standards so teachers work hard to help their students master the concepts necessary to pass the state assessment tests. You would face differing issues depending on whether you taught in a rural or urban school, but in general our classes are smaller than those on the coasts. When I meet teachers from other states at summer institutes, I am really glad I teach in Kansas. I suppose much of that has to do with the fact my community, school board, and administration support our teachers and our school. Our kids are great too.

It's fine. Of course, each school district is different- curriculum standards are set by the state, so those remain consistent throughout. Check-out the Kansas City, Kansas schools at this site:
