KIPP Texas Transfers

Parents and guardians seeking a transfer for the upcoming school year must complete re-enrollment for the current year before requesting a transfer. The transfer committee can only process a transfer request once re-enrollment is completed. Please note that the later the request is submitted, the less likely space will be available at the desired school. For more details, please get in touch with your child’s school directly. You can find your child’s school contact information at kipptexas.org/our-schools.

Visit https://kipptexas.org/our-schools/ and select your region, then select a grade level, then select your school to see which school it feeds into.

Each KIPP Texas school resides in a geographic priority zone. All students’ home addresses are zoned to specific KIPP Texas Public Schools. Applicants who live within those priority zones will receive priority for that school. Families requesting a transfer from one KIPP school to another must select their “priority zoned school.”

If your zip code is listed under selected schools, that is considered your “Priority Zoned School.”

Once the transfer request form has been submitted, you will receive a confirmation message and a copy of your form responses in your email.

The KIPP Texas Transfer Committee will review transfer requests once the window has closed. Within the following two weeks, you will receive a notification through email of the decision.

KIPP Texas prioritizes approving transfers based on extenuating circumstances and the availability of open seats. If the initial request was not approved, you may submit an appeal during the next transfer window.

*Submitting an appeal does not guarantee approval. An appeal must contain additional information beyond the original request to be considered.

No. We understand that circumstances change. If your child’s transfer is denied, you are welcome to submit an *appeal if you feel that your change in circumstances warrants another application.

Students requesting a transfer may be waitlisted if the requested school has no available seats. If a seat becomes available, the KIPP Transfer committee will review the waitlist before each window and offer a seat to the next student.

No. We cannot guarantee that all siblings will be approved for a transfer at the same time. Transfer spots will be allocated based on the number of available seats in each grade at each school.

The KIPP Texas Public Schools Student Transportation Department is dedicated to providing all students with accessible, safe, and reliable transportation, ensuring they can access the high-quality education they deserve.

Unless stated otherwise by the school, transportation is not guaranteed for students living within a school’s priority zone. Availability varies per route, but schools can provide information on available spots.

If a transfer request is approved and confirmed, please complete your Bus Request Form and contact your school to update your transportation information.

You may also email ktx.transportation@kipptexas.org for transportation questions.

Please contact your child’s school to provide your updated address if you have moved.

If you are interested in requesting a transfer to another KIPP Texas school, please contact your current school for assistance. You can find your school’s contact information at kipptexas.org/our-schools.
