Welcome

In the San Francisco Bay Area, five KIPP middle schools and two KIPP high schools are closing the achievement gap between low-income students and their more advantaged peers.

In these schools, more than 2,000 students are being prepared for success in college and the competitive world beyond. These tuition-free, college-preparatory schools are located in the under-served neighborhoods of Bayview Hunters Point and the Western Addition in San Francisco, East San Jose, San Lorenzo, and West Oakland.

While fewer than one in five low-income students typically attends college nationally, nearly 80% of Kipp alumni matriculate to colleges and universities.
