Founders’ Week

Please join us as we celebrate
Founders' Week 2025

This week is dedicated to honoring the visionaries, educators, and community members who built and continue to shape SKC. Together, we’ll celebrate the foundation of our institution, our Wisdom, Values, & Vision, through cherished campus and cultural traditions, friendly competition, and community gatherings.

A week of events

We're creating a fun week of events for students, faculty, and community to commemorate the efforts of those who've made SKC a success.

This year, we are proud to recognize Cleo Kenmille and Audrey Plouffe for their decades of extraordinary service and dedication.
