On September 14, 2024, we had the incredible opportunity to take 80 students, staff, and KIPP Philadelphia Public Schools families to Know Your Rights Camp, where they engaged in sessions with none other than Colin Kaepernick. This inspiring day at the Pennsylvania Convention Center was filled with interactive sessions including art, music, and speeches, all focused on education and social justice empowerment. Our students gained invaluable insights from remarkable speakers, including member of The MOVE Organization, Mike Africa, Jr., criminal defense attorney, Brianna Shaw, and Philly educator, Sharif El-Mekki, enriching their understanding of civil rights and activism. This experience was not just educational; it was a powerful reminder of the importance of knowing one’s rights and advocating for the rights of others. A monumental day that our students will cherish forever! #kippphilly #KnowYourRights #SocialJustice #Empowerment #Dreamwithoutlimits

Ten seniors from KIPP DuBois Collegiate Academy recently visited Accenture to explore the consulting industry. During the trip, students reflected on their UScience Aptitude test results, toured the office, and engaged with a panel of new employees and recent graduates. They asked insightful questions about choosing the right college and finding fulfillment in their careers. A big thank you to the Accenture team for hosting our students and offering valuable insights into the world of consulting! #KIPPPHILLY #Accenture #CollegeAndCareer #DreamWithoutLimits
