KIPP Indy Public Schools (KIPP Indy) is a network of tuition-free, open-enrollment, college preparatory, public charter schools. At KIPP Indy, we prepare students in underserved communities to succeed in college, lead lives of choice, and make positive contributions to our community. We are part of the national KIPP (Knowledge Is Power Program) network of 183 schools in 20 states and the District of Columbia, serving over 70,000 students. Nationally, students who attend KIPP schools graduate college at a higher rate than the U.S. average across all income levels, and a rate five times higher than the low-income average.

KIPP Indy was founded in 2004 with one class of fifth grade students and has grown to serve students across two schools. KIPP Indy College Prep Middle serves students in grades 5-8 and KIPP Indy Unite Elementary opened in 2014 with 100 kindergarten students and will continue to grow one grade per year, ultimately serving students in grades K-4. We plan to grow KIPP’s network of schools in Indianapolis to a total of five schools by 2021, serving 2,500 students in grades K-12.

KIPP Indy exists to provide a college preparatory education for students and to set them on the path to and through college. We offer extensive services and support through the KIPP Through College program. KIPP Through College supports KIPP Indy alumni on their journey to a college degree, helping them navigate the application process, access financial aid, connect to summer internships, and build the advocacy and decision-making skills needed to persist and graduate.
