Experience Extraordinary: Kent Denver Launches New Website
Experience Extraordinary: Kent Denver Launches New Website
Kent Denver School is proud to share our revamped, visually engaging and dynamic new website.
The site went live at the end of May, a culmination of more than a year of planning, design and execution. Watch our launch video, which highlights some of the top features on our interactive homepage.
The new website showcases the extraordinary educational experiences we offer our students in and out of the classroom every day. We’ve also provided an easier and more robust way for alumni to stay connected with each other and the school through the Alumni section, which is at the top of every page under the MyKDS menu.
The Alumni section's landing page provides quick access to the information our forever Sun Devils request most. Whether you want to make connections, attend an event or learn about Kent Denver’s history through our new interactive timeline, we hope the Alumni landing page will be your first stop on future visits to the new website!
