Enroll(注册) at a KIPP school
KIPP schools are tuition－free, public schools open to all students. To enroll your child in a KIPP school, please contact the school in your community directly by phone or email.
A safe and structured environment
Students need physical and emotional safety in order to take risks and learn from their successes and their mistakes. Our schools provide an environment with minimal distractions(使人分心的事) and more time for academic studies, so our students love school and maximize their learning.
A three－way partnership
By choosing KIPP, students, parents, and teachers make a commitment to excellence. All three parties are in it together. They sign an agreement called the “Commitment to Excellence”， which ensures that each will do whatever it takes to help the student learn.
