About Our School
KIPP Inquire partners with families to nurture every child’s sense of self while inspiring curiosity and challenging intellect. We believe a great education should expand the mind, move the body, and touch the heart—helping students grow into thoughtful, empathetic leaders ready to shape the future. Guided by small group instruction, our classrooms create close-knit learning communities where each child receives personal attention, practices new skills, and makes meaningful connections. Through engaging, project-based learning, students integrate ideas across disciplines—like pairing a science exploration of the five senses with math principles—so that knowledge is applied in creative, real-world ways.

Get in touch
What makes us shine is our focus on small-group instruction and project-based learning, where students build skills, make connections, and bring ideas to life! Add in daily STEM experiments, a special arts and movement elective, a state-of-the-art gym, and not one but two (2) rooftop terraces, and you’ve got a community where students thrive academically, socially, and creatively. Plus, our middle school, KIPP Affirm, is right in the same building—creating a seamless K–8 experience for families.
