KIPP Bay Area Schools is proving that demography does not define destiny. Every day, the collective efforts of 2,000 students, 126 teachers and seven school leaders across KIPP Bay Area Schools prove the possible: that public schools in low-income communities can prepare all students for success in college and the competitive world beyond.
KIPP Bay Area Schools (KBAS) is made up of five middle schools, two high schools and a regional support office. In 2009–2010, our schools serve more than 2,000 students. To date, 86% of our alumni attend college-preparatory high schools. Nearly 80% of these students are African American or Latino.
