We’re so glad you’re here! Kentucky Country Day School celebrates over 4,000 distinguished alumni across our country and around the world. Our alumni embody KCD’s motto of “Citizen, Scholar, Steward,” and we are so proud of their meaningful contributions to their communities.
We are pleased to offer many ways for you to stay connected with classmates and KCD. We invite you to join us at an event, build your network on Bearcat Connect, stay up-to-date via social media, and find ways to connect with your fellow alumni. We are filled with pride in our alumni and grateful for the many ways they give back to their alma mater.
And remember: once a Bearcat, always a Bearcat! Whether you spent 13 years at 4100 Springdale Road, just a few, or attended an entirely different campus, you’re always welcome here.
