KIPP Public Schools is a national network of public charter schools that prepares
students with the skills and confidence to create the future they want for themselves,
their communities, and us all. We are a network of 270 schools, nearly 10,000
educators, and more than 160,000 students and alumni.
● Mission: Together with families and communities, we create joyful, academically
excellent schools that prepare students with the skills and confidence to pursue
the paths they choose—college, career, and beyond—so they can lead fulfilling
lives and build a more just world.
● Vision: Every child grows up free to create the future they want for themselves
and their communities.
● KIPP in Oklahoma: KIPP currently operates as two KIPP regions in Oklahoma.
KIPP OKC was founded in 2002 and serves students grades 4-8 in a middle
school. KIPP Tulsa was founded in 2005 and now serves grades 5-12 in middle
and high school. Nationally, other same-state KIPP mergers/integrations are
occurring to better leverage outcomes, scale, and sustainability. In early 2021,
the KIPP Tulsa and OKC boards approved the hire of shared Executive Director
Darius Kirk and the launch of a due diligence and planning process currently
underway with support from consultants and KIPP Foundation to determine
whether the two regions should combine to become KIPP Oklahoma. As of
December 2021, the KIPP Oklahoma merger was voted on and completed by each representative board of directors. KIPP Oklahoma will officially launch July
1, 2022.
The Five Pillars of KIPP
1. High Expectations. KIPP schools have clearly defined and measurable high
expectations for academic achievement and conduct that make no excuses based on
the students' backgrounds. Students, parents, teachers, and staff create and reinforce a
culture of achievement and support through a range of formal and informal rewards and
consequences for academic performance and behavior.
2. Choice & Commitment. Students, their parents, and the faculty of each KIPP
school choose to participate in the program. No one is assigned or forced to attend a
KIPP school. Everyone must make and uphold a commitment to the school and to each
other to put in the time and effort required to achieve success.
3. More Time. KIPP schools know that there are no shortcuts when it comes to
success in academics and life. With an extended school day, week, and year, students
have more time in the classroom to acquire the academic knowledge and skills that will
prepare them for competitive high schools and colleges, as well as more opportunities
to engage in diverse extracurricular experiences.
4. Power to Lead. The principals of KIPP schools are effective academic and
organizational leaders who understand that great schools require great school leaders.
They have control over their school budget and personnel. They are free to swiftly move
dollars or make staffing changes, allowing them maximum effectiveness in helping
students learn.
5. Focus on Results. KIPP schools relentlessly focus on high student performance
on standardized tests and other objective measures. Just as there are no shortcuts,
there are no excuses. Students are expected to achieve a level of academic performance that will enable them to succeed at the nation's best high schools and
colleges. Teachers will be provided consistent and constant professional development.
Instructional Delivery and Assessment
● Deliver evidence-based specialized instruction to address the instructional goals contained within each student’s IEP and ensure access to the general education curriculum
● Use assessment data to adjust instructional methods and levels of support in both the special education and general education environment
● Provide consultation to general education teachers regarding classroom accommodations, instructional modifications, adaptive equipment, behavior plans and other similar instructional interventions to meet the needs of students with disabilities
● Coordinate the scheduling and delivery of special education services as outlined in each student's IEP through collaboration with related service providers and building leaders
● Develop IEPs in accordance with guidelines established under IDEA and the Oklahoma Special Education Compliance Program Review Standards and Indicators
● Maintain accurate records (e.g. grade book, discipline documentation, progress monitoring, service logs)
● Embrace and incorporate feedback in the spirit of constant improvement
Academic and Cultural Support
● Assume personal responsibility for student achievement
● Collaborate with content and grade-level teams to promote an environment of critical thinking, inclusion, and academic rigor
● Establish and maintain working relationships with students and families based on trust and respect
● Participate in the daily functions of the school such as morning, lunch, and afternoon supervisory duties
● Attend critical school events such as staff meetings, open houses, and student-led parent conferences
● Meet professional obligations including timeliness and consistency in meeting deadlines
