Exciting Opportunity for Our Sophomores!
We're proud to announce a special opportunity for our sophomore class, presented by Kimball Public Schools' very own Nicholas Thomas-Lewis, a former graduate who has excelled academically and professionally. After earning his Bachelor's degree at the University of Pennsylvania, Nicholas became a Rhodes Scholar and completed his master’s degree at Oxford University. He is now pursuing his doctorate at both the University of California, San Francisco, and Berkeley.
Along with fellow Rhodes Scholar Coleman Warren, Nicholas has co-founded the Compass Program, which is designed to provide students in rural communities with experiences that foster growth and future success.
