They read the plan.
Every champion has seen the full project list and how the district stretched its current dollars before asking for more. This is an endorsement of a specific, published plan to fix aging schools — not a blank check.
The heart of the campaign
Become aChampion.
Champions are at the heart of our campaign advocacy for the 2026 USD 259 Bond Issue. No matter what level you’re able to assist, we’re looking for individuals who want to stay informed, share accurate information and rally support as we get closer to the November 3 General Election. As our campaign gears up, we’ll send you ways to get involved — or simply help us spread the word.
What it means to be a Champion
They’re not doing politics.
Our school board has red and blue elected officials. Our champions are red and blue too — WPS graduates, parents, and teachers, alongside plenty of neighbors with no kids in the schools who simply believe in Wichita. This is about kids, not parties.
They put their names on it.
After taking a hard look, every person on this page chose to stand up publicly for what this plan will do for Wichita kids and the teachers educating the next generation.
Count me in because… “I’m a proud WPS Alumna: Irving, Riverside, Marshall, North” — Jordan Walker
