The mission of KIPP Academy Boston Public Charter School and KIPP Academy Lynn Public Charter School, collectively "KIPP Massachusetts," is to provide educationally underserved students with the academic skills, intellectual habits and character traits necessary to maximize their potential in college and the world beyond. We educate the students and families in Lynn and Boston's most economically disadvantaged neighborhoods, wherever the achievement gap persists, serving student demographics that mirror those of neighborhood schools in terms of race, socioeconomic status, English Language Learners, and Special Education students.Our promise to students and families is that their children will enter college 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. These students will be able to return to their community as teachers, leaders, and architects of continued growth in Lynn and Boston.KIPPMA curently educates over 1,850 students in Lynn and Mattapan and is part of the KIPP (Knowledge is Power Program) national network of 208 tuition-free, college-preparatory, public charter schools open to all, serving nearly 88,000 students annually, with a 20 year track record of preparing students in underserved communities for success in college and in life. Currently, KIPP MA has 5 schools in the region. KIPP Academy Lynn Elementary (K-2nd), KIPP Academy Lynn (5th-8th), KIPP Academy Lynn Collegiate (9th-12th), KIPP Academy Boston (5th-8th), and KIPP Academy Boston Elementary (K-3rd).
