AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

Arts & Entertainment: “Phantom of the Opera” is coming to Tempe’s ASU Gammage (Sept. 16–Oct. 4), with Isaiah Bailey as the Phantom and Jordan Lee Gilbert as Christine—bringing classic Paris-under-the-opera-house drama back to life. Local Culture & Community: Downing Appreciation Days returns with a Sept. 10–12 festival, plus a Sept. 5 truck and tractor pull and a Sept. 6 community church service at Depot Park. Education & Early Childhood: Missouri’s Imagination Library is winding down after state budget cuts—new signups are paused, and the program will keep going for current families until remaining funds run out. Elections & Civic Life: Boone County officials are preparing for November ballot changes tied to Missouri Supreme Court redistricting decisions, with the Boone County clerk focused on keeping voters informed and confident. Higher Ed Outcomes: New county-by-county six-year bachelor’s completion figures show wide gaps by race and county across Missouri public four-year schools, including notable rates for Hispanic or Latino students at UM-Columbia and Asian students at Missouri State-Springfield. Business & Lifestyle: Pitchside Coffee is relocating to Kansas City Current’s riverfront game-day district, aiming for an early November opening near CPKC Stadium. Church & Safety: A Denver lawsuit alleges a church pressured a teen to recant a rape claim instead of reporting it to police, raising questions about mandatory reporting and oversight.
