The Des Moines Public Schools has filed to transfer the license of KDPS, 88.1 FM, and It is currently under review at the FCC. The new operator will be "Community Broadcasting, Inc.," from Bott Broadcasting based in Kansas which has a national network that typically programs evangelical Christian teaching programs. The new operator has asked for the call letters KCVD-FM.

It's a sad end to the over 50 years of educational broadcasting from the Des Moines Public Schools and Grand View was part of that for over 30 of those years. The high school radio students and some portions of Kids Radio Mania will hopefully continue to air on KDPScentral.streamon.fm.

With the new school year starting, the streaming of KDPS radio has switched back to all older rock and pop hits during the week. Kids Radio Mania airs during the daytime on the weekends.

There is no update yet on the sale of the station and a new teacher will be taking over the broadcast program at Central Campus this fall. The current silent status for 88.1 FM is approved through Nov. 27th. We will try to keep you posted on any updates.
