High School Experience

Book Icon

Our students learn to think deeply, write passionately, and engage thoughtfully through rigorous learning experiences. From student-led discussions, to analyzing texts, to researching and visiting local colleges, students grow by stepping out of their comfort zone.

Personalized learning approaches address each child’s individual needs. We emphasize social-emotional lessons, awareness, and reflection that support student growth.

Emphasis on the importance of diversity, equity, and inclusion further empowers high school students to develop their unique social and communication skills, fosters belonging, and encourages growth.

We provide free bus transportation across our regions to support families with a safe, reliable ride to and from school.

We provide free, nutritionally balanced breakfast and lunch daily to fuel academic focus and build lifelong healthy habits.

The KIPP Forward Difference

Our dedicated KIPP Forward team helps students graduate ready to choose a path toward college, career, and beyond. Students work alongside their advisor to select the right college and career based on their needs and interests.

We’ve partnered with over 100 colleges and universities across the country to lead a better path to and through college for your child.

We assist students with finding the right college for them with our Counselor Match Tool. Based on a student’s GPA and ACT/SAT scores, the tool calculates likely, match, and reach colleges.

Foundation for Future Success

By developing students inside and outside of the classroom, we strengthen their leadership and communications skills to better prepare them for the future.

College & Career Readiness

Personalized learning allows students to learn based on their unique needs. KIPP Texas allows kids to be kids while preparing them with the skills and confidence to succeed and pursue the paths they choose after graduation.

Students are given the opportunity to enroll in Advanced Placement (AP) courses, exposing them to college-level curriculum and the opportunity to earn college credits.

Extracurriculars & Sports

We encourage our students to engage in extracurricular activities and athletics opportunities to broaden their interests in topics outside of the classroom. These can include sports, film production, dance, debate, theatre arts, communications, and more. Offerings vary by school.
