Future First Kenya

Alumni are role models who are easily accepted by students. With the return of alumni to support their alma mater, they bring with them credibility and justification as part of a successful school. Experiences shared by alumni with students are lifechanging. #AlumniAsRoleModels

Strong Alumni Communities can be a social model for the unity of the society and a factor for economic growth and development. This is based on the new Kenya Competency-Based Curriculum that strives to strengthen the development of the state and the nation.

Policy 3.13 (Pg. 25) of the Mentorship Policy highlights, schools should observe and institutionalize celebration of the mentorship day by having an Annual Alumni Day in their respective school calendars to support school-based mentoring of students. #AlumniAsMentors

Do you recall Mzee Moi ever visiting your school or a nearby community? Born 70's, 80's, and 90's did you ever sing for him? Let's hear your memories. We celebrate you Mzee. Rest in eternal peace Mzee Moi.

Alumni groups have played a key role in supporting the government's full primary-secondary student transition. Rapogi Alumni have supported the construction of a 700 capacity bed dormitory, and Kisii Alumni have started the construction of 12 classrooms to decongest the classes.

It's alumni mentorship day @dandorahighschool @coachngolobe @futurefirstke @MakumiJunior #alumnidoinggood #alumnigivingback

@MakumiJunior @futurefirstke It is not about the school you went to, nor where you come from, what matters is the focus and what you believe in. #alumnidoinggood

"We went through many challenges while at school, we didn't even have a perimeter wall for our school, but we struggled, and have made it." Gideon Makumi, Dandora High School Alumni Class of 2010. #alumnidoinggood

@futurefirstke first engaged Dandora High school 7 years ago. We are glad to come back.

Notwithstanding the level of satisfaction with the School, the institution still needs to translate this emotional attachment and desire to give back into actionable decisions. It needs to provide them the platform to express their love for their alma mater in concrete terms.

Overall satisfaction with the student experience, the school’s brand and its prestige, and active involvement in school and alumni affairs during the period of study engender an emotional attachment to the School, which in turn encourages students’ involvement after graduation.

According to Scott Gaier (2005): “Alumni who are highly satisfied with the academic system during their years of schooling are more likely to be involved with their alma mater than those alumni who do not have a high level of satisfaction with the academic system.”

EFFECTIVE INSTITUTIONAL LEADERSHIP AND ALUMNI ENGAGEMENT. The quality of learning and the success of the students during school and after graduation are major factors that encourage active alumni participation. #effectivealumniengagement #alumnigiving

An effective Alumni Relationship begins with providing a successful experience to the students. The attachment that alumni have towards their alma-mater depends on the effort that the school takes to make their days memorable as students. #TuesdayMotivation #TuesdayThoughts

5 years ago, Lang'ata Primary children were tear gassed trying to protect their school from land grabbers. 5 years later, schools are still facing the same issues. #OccupyPlayGround is relevant now more than ever @StandardMediaKe @irunguhoughton bit.ly/2G2bdLN
