In 1984 Dan Corley and his college roommate Bob Hahn founded Community Prep with three teachers and 25 students in rented classrooms at the John Hope Settlement House. Today, as Community Prep celebrates more than 25 years helping students succeed, we also celebrate 24 graduating classes – 574 children from our community, 92% of whom have been accepted into college-preparatory high school programs.  In addition, 83% of college-age alumni are enrolled in college or have earned their degrees.  They have earned more than $18 million in scholarships.

Helping us to celebrate our 25 years of excellence, two generous donors, Susan and David Hibbitt, put forth a challenge, which they have kindly extended for 2011-2012. They will match all new or increased gifts (increased by 25% or more) this year, dollar for dollar and will match 2:1 all gifts from alumni and families of current and former students.
