    Our academic program is challenging. It develops critical thinking and problem-solving skills while it encourages intellectual curiosity leading to lifelong learning. We believe that in this twenty-first century our young people must go beyond just being technology trained and computer literate. They must understand the fundamental need that persists to care for and to be cared for by others. The human touch must be maintained and cherished in our highly technological world. We believe that the students of today are challenged to recognize the potential in technological advances for the betterment of mankind and to do all in their power to work toward this goal.

    Susan Mulford
    Kirkland Albrecht & Fredrickson P.C.
    Director, Human Resources

    KAF Financial Group began as Kirkland Albrecht and Fredrickson, P.C. in 1991, with four partners with one common desire. Our desire was to create a public accounting firm that creates long lasting relationships with a superior level of expertise and quality service. Our continued growth and expansion into the new millennium created an opportunity to view the world of accounting differently. The economic landscape was actually demanding it. Businesses were looking to have more services delivered in less time. KAF welcomed this challenge with heightened awareness, and created KAF Financial Group.
