Opening Letter


Dear KIPP Chicago Champions, Educators, and Supporters:

This week is Teacher Appreciation Week and leadership at each campus has worked to make this week meaningful and joy-filled for our educators. It cannot be overstated that we are in deep admiration and appreciation for our KIPP Chicago staff who consistently bring determination, compassion, joy, and love to their teaching everyday.

I am so inspired by our KIPP Chicago teachers as I reflect on what is possible in education. There are only rare examples of our communities being first in line for technology and innovation so we are working to ensure that our students have access to the most cutting edge, advanced technology. Just last month, some of our top leaders attended the ASU+GSV Summit, an education and technology conference in San Diego.

In deep appreciation,
April

Revised Opening Letter (Tuesday 2:56)

Dear KIPP Chicago Champions, Eductors, and Supporters:

This week is Teacher Appreciation Week and leadership at each campus has worked to make this week meaningful and joy-filled for our educators. It cannot be overstated that we are in deep admiration and appreciation for our KIPP Chicago staff who consistently bring determination, compassion, joy, and love to their teaching everyday.

I am so inspired by our KIPP Chicago teachers as I reflect on what is possible in education. Last month, some of our top leaders attended the ASU+GSV Summit, an education and technology conference in San Diego. There are only rare examples of our communities being first in line for critical resources, so it is with great optimism that I look to the future. I am confident we have some of our country’s most talented teachers and I’m enthusiastic about the future as we bring cutting edge technologies to our classrooms.

I hope you share my enthusiasm and I look forward to sharing more about our pilots in future editions of our Whole Child Review.

In deep appreciation,
April
