Here's a little snippet of what KOS means to JaBria:
"For me KOS is opportunity...The WHOLE KOS family was so warm and welcoming to me. They told me, "Girl you go to Atlanta and you do your 'thang.' Make us proud." I hope that's what I did my first semester, I came out with three A's and three B's. (Dean's list) I thought of them and my mom the entire time. KOS is my family, and if not for meeting them, I probably wouldn't be in Atlanta experiencing all the things I have. And to whoever else gets the blessing of becoming a part of our wonderful family, I hope that you receive the same opportunity and blessing I did."

Thank you JaBria! You exemplify strength and perseverance! We are humbled that you have chosen to be a part of our family!

01/21/2015

KOS would like to recognize Miss JaBria Neal for a very successful 1st semester at Clark Atlanta University! She made the Dean's list!!! JaBria we are so proud of you! You are a perfect example of why we do what we do! We could not be more honored to serve you.

KOS jumped on a plane to Boston to attend a seminar for Bootstrap, a curriculum that will teach students to program their own video games! This program will allow students to directly apply algebra and geometry concepts in programming. KOS is at Northeastern University being trained at a Bootstrap Workshop in order to help share this fascinating curriculum with our very own youth! We can't wait to return to Dallas and offer these classes, free of charge, to whoever is interested in learning!!! Stay tuned...
