Colegio Karl C. Parrish


Colegio Karl C. Parrish (also known as KCP) is a bilingual private school which offers Preschool through 12th grade education. The school is located in Barranquilla, the largest city and port of the northern Caribbean coastline of Colombia.
==Description==

Colegio Karl C. Parrish was founded in 1938. It is accredited by the Colombian Ministerio de Educación Nacional and the US-based Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, now part of the AdvancED accrediting agency. KCP is affiliated with international organizations such as the National Honor Society, Mu Alpha Theta, Model United Nations, and CharacterCounts!.
The school teaches a U.S college-preparatory curriculum. Students study for both the U.S High School Diploma and the Colombian Bachillerato Diploma. The school has a strong offering of Advanced Placement courses. More than 99% of KCP graduates pursue college degrees.
==History==
The school opened its doors for primary students in 1938 as the result of an initiative by American and Colombian families to establish a school that could offer a United States-type education. They named the school after Karl Calvin Parrish, a civil engineer from Iowa who made Barranquilla his home in the 1920s. The first director was Miss Miriam Best. The school has changed its location twice since its beginnings, once in 1946 and later in 1978 to its present site on the old road to Puerto Colombia.
In 1964, with the arrival of Dr. Burton B. Fox, the school began to be known internationally and KCP’s reputation grew as one of the top performing American schools in Latin America. It became an internationally accredited school in 1966 by the Southern Association of Schools and Colleges – now an accreditation division of AdvancED – and still holds that status. The first class of seniors graduated in 1967.
In 1998, the KCP Preschool adopted a Reggio Emilia approach – a specially designed project-based learning environment for preschoolers. It was the first school in Colombia to have this program and has been a model for many schools, both in Colombia and Latin America.
