Our Philosophy

Guided by the belief that the quality of education for Kansas City’s urban youth impacts the quality of life throughout our region, PREP-KC works with the Kansas City, Kansas Public Schools and the Kansas City, Missouri School District to develop, leverage and deploy resources to improve outcomes for all of Kansas City’s youth. PREP-KC’s goal is to increase college-going and access to high-quality employment for the over 47,000, mostly low-income students served by these two Kansas City districts.
