Kimberly Smith

“My commitment stems from lived experiences. We have zero control of the circumstances we are born into. I was fortunate to be raised by parents who had the means to move our family inches inside the border of quality neighborhood schools. I recognized early on in life that fair and equal is never assumed — I claimed equity as my soul mission. I have dedicated my work to creating spaces and opportunities for children who have been purposefully disadvantaged by institutions, structures and environments. It is at the core of the DNA of my personal and professional journey.”

Kimberly Smith is the Executive Director of the League of Innovative Schools at Digital Promise.
