COMMITTED TO KIDS THROUGH FAMILY GIVING
Kentfield Invests in Kids (KIK) raises over $1 million for the students of Bacich and Kent schools. With these funds, KIK supports enrichments for every kid every day.
KIK dollars give KSD the flexibility to offer various programs at our schools. All these enrichments provide our students with a content-rich experience and prepare them for next-level learning:
