Welcome

About Our School

KIPP Academy Elementary, the first KIPP Elementary school, proudly celebrates 30 years and a National Robotics Championship win! We believe every child thrives when their strengths are at the center of learning. That’s why we offer opportunities like robotics, advanced programming, Success for All small reading groups, and Lab reading sessions. With class sizes of just 12–15 students, children receive personalized attention in reading, math, and beyond. Guided by our SPROUT values—Serenity, Pride, Respect, Optimism, Understanding, and Take a Risk—we nurture strong academics, character, and creativity every day.
