Rooted in Community
KIPP Tulsa was established with a fifth-grade class in 2005. We set out to expand pathways and possibilities for scholars and families looking for rigorous education, joy, and an expectation of academic excellence in North Tulsa.
Now, more than 20 years later, we operate two joyful and academically excellent schools serving more than 500 scholars in 6-12 grade and more than 1,500 alumni. KIPP Tulsa is proud to be part of the KIPP Public Schools network, the largest charter network in the country. Across the country, KIPP educates nearly 125,000 scholars in 279 schools.
Public Schools Serving Grades 6-12
We operate two excellent college-prep public schools in North Tulsa, KIPP Tulsa College Preparatory (grades 6-8) and KIPP Tulsa University Prep (grades 9-12). KIPP Tulsa schools are free and open to all scholars.
In each classroom, you’ll find talented scholars invested in their education and dedicated teachers committed to bringing out the best in scholars. Beyond the classroom, scholars take part in extracurricular activities like band, sports, gardening, and the debate team.
