KCPT Partners with SEA LIFE Aquarium

A high school broadcast / journalism contest - once in a life time opportunity for all students involved.

Mendy Rose, Marketing Manager SEA LIFE Kansas City Aquarium and Matt Lowe, Account Executive SEA LIFE Kansas City Aquarium kicked off the KCPT and SEA LIFE high school broadcasting/journalism contest at KCPT. Ten area high schools were chosen to cover the arrival of the fish to their new home at SEA LIFE Aquarium Kansas City. The ten teams will go behind the scenes of the arrival of the fish and be able to interview those who are responsible for the delivery and care of over 5,000 creatures. The teams will be competing for the winning opportunity to not only have their feature air on KCPT’s The Local Show but be a member of the media coverage at the opening of the SEA LIFE Aquarium Kansas City. This will truly be an outstanding, once in a life time opportunity for all students involved.

Building Futures: Mid-America Head Start

Barbra Porter sits down with the directors of the Mid-America Head Start program to discuss the various resources available to help low-income families.

Many of us have heard of Head Start, but we don’t always have a full understanding of what they do. Guest host Barbra Porter sits down with the directors of the Mid-America Head Start program to discuss their focus on not only ensuring children are ready to learn when they enter school but also on its services for nutrition, health and family support.

Mid-America Head Start and Early Head Start serve more than 3,000 infants, toddlers and pre-schoolers in Clay, Jackson and Platte counties in Missouri. We are dedicated to improving the well-being of low-income families by working with each family to identify their specific needs.
