Sunday, January 3, 2021 by jethrojones


Professor Anthony Kimpson, or Mr. K as he is known by his students is on a mission to positively impact the lives of every young person he touches and to help them aspire to change the direction of their lives through the power of education. He is a dynamic coach, teacher, leader, and speaker with a passion to encourage, empower, mentor, motivate, and educate young people. He believes in breaking down the barriers and excuses often used within his community towards the pursuit of education and higher learning. His philosophy is there is NO substitute for education and he strongly believes the cliché, “when you know better, you do better.” Finally, Anthony’s story is one of courage, determination, and perseverance as he is a 14 year conqueror of cancer. He has the courage to take a stand for what he believes in, the determination to make a difference, and the perseverance to see it through no matter the obstacle.
