Values that Make a Difference

At KIPP, it's all about Excellent Results. They believe that denying excellent outcomes from public organizations to people of color and those experiencing economic hardship only perpetuates inter-generational racism and poverty. Hence, they focus on world-class excellence because their students deserve nothing less.

Courageous Action is another core value at KIPP. They acknowledge that their work, centered on reversing the impact of generational racism and poverty on children of color from low-income families, is challenging. But they are ready to embrace, confront, and overcome adversity.

KIPP also believes in Resilient Solutions. They doggedly pursue solutions to every problem they confront. They are smart, optimistic, and thoughtful in crafting solutions, and they embrace a growth mindset, believing that they can achieve their ultimate aims tomorrow if they haven't today. They continuously strive for the improvement of themselves, their interpersonal relationships, their teams, and their organization.

So, if you're looking for an organization that values excellence, courage, and resilience, where every day is an opportunity to shape the future, look no further than KIPP Public Schools. They're not just creating students, they're creating leaders, innovators, and most importantly, creators of a better future.
