KIPP Create College Prep

Moving here from Texas was fun and a challenge. When looking for schools, I grew very weary of the offerings. Public school is public school — but in a city where most students do not read at their grade level — I was torn as to if and where we should attend school. After doing lots of research and praying — we found KIPP. For us, it has been amazing! I wish school was like this when I was in elementary. The kids are encouraged to begin thinking about where they will go to college and are greeted as the class of (insert year they are expected to graduate from college). The classes are fun, the teachers are engaged and engage the children. Mostly, I see that the kids are encouraged to believe in themselves and each other. ‘WORK HARD, BE NICE’ is their motto and it is a joy to see them living this out. Thank you to KIPP and the teachers for making an impact on children. Children should be reminded they can achieve awesome. KIPP reminds them of this, THUMBS UP.
