Alumni

Welcome to the KIPP DC Alumni Association! From the founding class of scholars who graduated from KIPP DC KEY Academy in 2005 to our first KIPP DC College Preparatory graduates in 2013, our network has grown to more than 2,005KIPP DC alums.

The KIPP DC Alumni Association supports alumni advancement through networking and connectivity. It serves all KIPP DC completers- including middle school alums- upon high school graduation and connects alums to fellow graduates, resources, and local and national KIPP Forward alumni support services. The alumni association continues supporting alumni after transitioning from KIPP Forward services following college and career program completion.

With a growing alumni network, our goal is to curate and provide a space where former students can reconnect, engage, and network with the KIPP DC community.
