KC CURRENTS 2-11-07

By Ty Chandler, Alex Smith and Sylvia Maria Gross

Kansas City, MO – On this week's show, we sort through the dozen candidates in Kansas City's mayor's race with journalists from the Kansas City Call, KC Hispanic News and the Pitch. As the Kansas City Missouri school district considers implementing K-8 schools, hear the opinions of local parents and an expert studying similar schools in Philadelphia. Plus, Rabbi Morris Margolies talks about the Dead Sea Scrolls, now on display at Union Station.

KCUR is here for Kansas City, because Kansas City is here for KCUR.
