My Experience

100% college acceptance rate

The skills I developed at Kew-Forest enabled me to maintain a 4.0 GPA throughout my undergraduate years, ultimately earning the Valedictorian Award and election to Phi Beta Kappa.

Marcus proudly shared his Chinese heritage during Lunar New Year by demonstrating a traditional lion dance using a costume we built together and sharing mooncakes with his class. This cultural exchange enriched both his experience and the broader school community.
