Committed to Excellence

Our 2030 strategic plan, Committed to Excellence, is the roadmap to achieve academic excellence, fully enroll our schools, and create innovative schooling opportunities for every Little KIPPster.

Multi-Year Plan Priorities

Academic Excellence:

We are dedicated to delivering a transformative, college-preparatory education for every student, raising academic standards, and ensuring every KIPPster, regardless of background, has the support and resources to thrive.

Fully Enrolled Schools:

We must ensure we have fully enrolled schools to broaden our reach and impact our communities. Our responsive enrollment strategy will identify how we achieve the priority through persistence and acquisition strategic action.

Innovative Schooling:

To stay relevant in the future, we are cultivating a clear pathway to ensuring our schools are innovative and healthy, including using technology to enhance our work in our classrooms.

Together, with the support of our communities, stakeholders, and partners, we are writing a new chapter in the story of education in Texas. A chapter defined by innovation, impact, and the unwavering belief that every child deserves the chance to grow up free to create the future they want for themselves and their communities. This is our mission. This is our commitment. And together, we will make it a reality.
