GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Best experience was our senior talegate where the seniors get to go outside and play games and eat food before the first football game of the season and all tickets for seniors are free. Bad experience is my safety there have been many occasions where someone in my school was threatened or getting into really bad fights. I would like to see campus security to ensure the safety of students.

I'm a senior now but have been at Kipp since I was In the 5th grade and one thing I can say for sure is that education and real-world readiness are their top priority.

I dont regret coming to KIPP. At first I was scared of moving from a public to charter schools because the things I would hear about the schools and students was something I didn't want to be apart of. However, sticking with this high school brought so many opportunities, and friendships I will forever be grateful. I believe KIPP's motive to always try to improve is very admirable, and though I believe there's much that needs to be improve, the school overall is very safe and resourceful. I appreciate the staffs efforts to have a relationship with their students (professionally ofc.) and appreciate the teachers different approaches to teaching. I do think the school could do better with their arts and liberal programs, as they seem to be lacking in resources. However, being a STEM person, I believe the improvements to gather opportunities for students to explore STEM has been made but I would appreciate more exposure to different fields career/education wise.

But unlike most staff at other schools, if you talk to them about it, they WILL help. There's even a school therapist- She is amazing and is...

The teachers at KIPP are enthusiastic, committed and dedicated to their students. They are on call until 9pm for homework help. They have open communication with the parents. Often they just call to give me an update. The academics are challenging. My child, who never spent more than 15 minutes on h...
