HUTCHINSON, Kan. — The incoming Superintendent for Buhler USD 313 is part of a task force helping Kansas’ students receive supplemental education content via television.

Cindy Couchman is part of the task force that is partnering with Public Television as part of the Continuous Learning-Kansas Public Broadcasting Alliance. The programming will give students of all ages another avenue for learning. Each 30-minute segment of the “Learning Across Kansas” television show will feature educational content and will be aired on PBS stations across Kansas.

The Task Force is chaired by Dyane Smokorowski, an innovation, and technology leader in the Andover School District; along with Couchman, and Tabatha Rosproy, an early childhood teacher at Winfield USD 465.

The supplemental education content will be geared toward all grade levels and will be taught by Kansas teachers across the state. The content will be shared through PBS stations.

The Continuous Learning Task Force was created by Kansas Commissioner of Education Dr. Randy Watson to offer guidance after Gov. Laura Kelly closed school buildings for the remainder of the school year because of COVID-19.
