KCP Students Participate in Summer Immersion & Internship Programs

It’s been a busy summer for many of our KIPP DC College Prep students!

With the tremendous help of our KIPP DC’s KIPP Through College and Career team, Future Focus program, and our partner schools/organizations, more than 30 students participated in summer immersion and internships programs across the country.

Through a partnership with Accenture, KTC team created Future Focus, a career readiness program focused on building the essential career readiness skills needed for success in the competitive job market. To date, more than 130 KIPP DC students have participated in the program. We look forward to the opportunity to work with more organizations to ensure we are actively preparing our students for college, career, and a choice-filled life.
