I was also the very first student ever (over 30+ years ago) from the High Jump Prep program hosted out of the Latin School of Chicago, which I later attended on scholarship. I was originally part of the very first Cohort 1, but skipped a grade and ended up graduating a year before cohort 1 - becoming Cohort 0. I'm passionate about helping and mentoring gifted, less than privileged, inner-city kids because that's what I was. I believe they hold more answers to our future than everyone gives them credit for. https://highjumpchicago.org/alumni-spotlight-ken/ - and I wrote this profile myself. I'm not that special.
