Right in the heart of Crown Heights, KIPP AMP (Always Mentally Prepared) Elementary sparks curiosity, fuels a love of learning, and inspires students to become lifelong learners and leaders. Our students raise their voices with confidence—working to make our community and our world better every day. From the very beginning, KIPP AMP has focused on pairing academic excellence with personal growth, made possible through the powerful partnership of parents, students, and teachers. Guided by our REACH values—Respect, Empowerment, Accountability, Courage, and Honesty—we build resilience, leadership, and joy. At KIPP AMP, students grow with confidence, purpose, and laughter, every single day.
What makes KIPP AMP unique is our blend of strong academics, vibrant arts, and inclusive classrooms.

Step into our hallways and you’ll find smiling faces, art-filled walls, and a spirit of belonging that makes learning exciting every single day.
