About KIPP
KIPP, an acronym for Knowledge Is Power Program, is a national network of free, open-enrollment, college-preparatory public schools serving students from underserved communities. Founded in 1994 by Mike Feinberg and Dave Levin in Houston, Texas, KIPP has since grown into one of the largest and most influential charter school networks in the United States. The organization is dedicated to preparing students with the knowledge, skills, and character traits needed to succeed in college and beyond, operating under the principle that all children, regardless of background, can achieve academic excellence. KIPP schools offer a rigorous academic curriculum, extended school days, and a strong emphasis on college readiness. Their programs include KIPP Through College, which provides support to KIPP alumni through high school and college, and a variety of specialized schools tailored to different age groups, from elementary to high school. The network primarily serves low-income communities, with a focus on minority students who historically face barriers to educational opportunity. KIPP’s approach combines high expectations, choice and commitment, and strong relationships between students, teachers, and families. KIPP has achieved significant recognition for its impact on student achievement, with many of its schools outperforming traditional public schools in similar demographics. The network operates in 20 states and Washington, D.C., serving over 140,000 students across more than 250 schools. Its unique value proposition lies in its data-driven, results-oriented model, which has inspired similar programs nationwide and positioned KIPP as a leader in educational equity and innovation.
