Mission Statement
Together with families and communities, we create joyful, academically excellent schools that prepare students with the skills and confidence to pursue the paths they choose—college, career, and beyond—so they can lead fulfilling lives and build a more just world.
About This Cause
When we began in one classroom in 1995 in the South Bronx, we promised our first kids and families we'd do whatever it takes for our students to be successful. Today, we make the same sacred promise to more than 8,500 students and alumni on their way to and through college and career. Keeping good on our promise year in and year out has helped KIPP alumni graduate college at dramatically higher rates than their peers. GOING BEYOND ACADEMICS: Along with rigorous academics, we're committed to world-class co-curriculars with the goal of igniting and inspiring the passions of every one of our students. - K-12 Robotics program, including 30 teams that excel in city, State, and national competitions. - K-12 music curriculum including bands that have performed at the Apollo and Lincoln Center. - 19 high school varsity sports teams including champions in football, girls and boys basketball, girls rugby, baseball, and cheerleading. - 24 Arts electives including Visual Arts, Graphic Design, Choir, Dance and Theatre. - A robust college & career counseling program that sends more than 500 high school students to career or experiential learning programs.
