A Place to Start

The financial health of KCD has never been stronger, but the demands of a growing, vibrant independent school require that our endowment keep pace with that growth if we are to ensure our long-term success.

More specifically, a larger endowment will allow us to:

Recruit, retain, and cultivate great teachers by increasing funds allocated to teaching resources and overall compensation;

Invest in programs that enhance our ability to provide teachers with the necessary resources for professional development, promote diversity, and assist in keeping a KCD education affordable;

Support the operational expenses associated with the new facilities; and

Expand the corpus of the endowment to more robustly sustain and develop the school over the long-term and reduce the reliance on tuition in the funding of its daily operations.
