What We DoWe seek to provide a world-class education for students
from educationally underserved communities in Lynn and Boston. Our
student demographics mirror those of neighborhood schools in terms
of race, socioeconomic status, English Language Learners, and
students who receive special education services.Our promise to
families is that their children will enter college and the
professional world able to thrive academically due to their
literacy, numeracy, and core knowledge in science and social
studies. We also promise that our students will develop the zest
for learning and grit necessary to persevere as they climb the
mountain to and through college and career. Our graduates will be
prepared to return to their community as teachers, leaders, and
architects of continued growth in Lynn and Boston.
Our Diversity, Equity and Inclusivity VisionAt KIPP Massachusetts,
we believe that Knowledge is Power. Every day, our team and family

communities for success in college and life.There are 242 KIPP
