Job Description

The Johnson County Post is the most trusted and turned-to source for consistent, reliable community coverage in Kansas’s biggest county. Our goal is to be the “user’s guide to Johnson County” — a resource available for anyone who wants to make sure they’re plugged in to what’s happening in the place they call home.

Johnson County's success was largely built on the strength of its schools. The county's population boom began in the 1950s as families across the Kansas City area moved here to raise their children in neighborhoods with nationally recognized public schools. The public education reporter keeps tabs on how Johnson County's six public school districts are facing the challenges of changing demographics, aging facilities and state funding disputes.
