Indianapolis Charter School
KIPP is a non-profit network of college-preparatory, public charter schools with a 20-year track record of preparing students in educationally underserved communities for success in college and life. KIPP currently educates nearly 100,000 students in 242 schools across the country, including Indianapolis. KIPP Indy Public Schools (KIPP Indy) was founded in 2004 with one class of fifth grade students and has grown to educate more than 1,000 students across two schools. At KIPP Indy, teachers, students, and families are all united around the same goal: college and a choice-filled life. We believe that an excellent college-preparatory education will set students up for success in whatever life path they choose. KIPP Indy College Prep Middle educates students in grades 6-8 and KIPP Indy Unite Elementary educates students in grades K-5. Each year, our elementary has added a grade level until it eventually educates students through 5th grade. This fall, we launched KIPP Indy Legacy High, our first high school, with only 9th grade and will grow to educate 500 students in grades 9-12. Ultimately, our schools will educate 1,400 students in grades K-12 in the Martindale-Brightwood neighborhood.
