KIPP DC  is a non-profit network of high-performing, college-preparatory public charter schools in Washington, D.C. Our sixteen schools and The Learning Center educate more than 6,300 students on six campuses in communities within the city with limited access to quality educational options. At KIPP DC, we empower students to access opportunities that lead to lives full of choice and opportunity. Highly skilled teachers and leaders, more time in school, a rigorous college preparatory-curriculum, and a strong culture of achievement and support help our students climb the mountain to and through college and careers. KIPP DC believes in diversity, equity, and inclusion for all and is committed to maintaining an inclusive organizational culture.

At KIPP DC, we believe quality instruction directly influences student achievement. Therefore, teaching and learning is at the core of everything we do. KIPP DC is committed to their teachers and view them as central to our mission and success as an organization. We pride ourselves on providing unparalleled professional development and leadership opportunities. In addition, we create a staff culture that is ambitious, intentional, and joyful. We acknowledge the demands of the teaching profession, and continually seek to improve sustainability and benefits.

As part of the KIPP network’s 224 schools, we share best practices and innovations with our peers across the city and across country.
