Strong schools build strong communities. As an educator and parent, I understand the importance of student wellness, transparent communication, and community engagement in creating a thriving district. I want to help ensure our schools are a place where students learn, grow, and succeed—both academically and personally.
​
✅ Support Student Well-Being Schools should be safe, healthy spaces where every child can develop their individual talents.
✅ Increase Transparency
Families and community members deserve clear, open communication about school decisions.
✅ Strengthen Our Schools
By adhering to national best practices while supporting student and teacher agency and autonomy, we can build a brighter future for our students and our region.
About Dr. Kylie King
​
"I’m proud to be a fourth-generation member of our school district, with deep family ties to the community. My grandfather, a mason, helped lay the bricks that built our local elementary schools, and today, my children are students in the district. The education I received in the Plattsburgh City School District shaped my academic and professional success, and I am committed to ensuring every student has access to the same opportunities."
