Every child grows up free to create the future they want for themselves and their communities.

About us

Founded in 2002, KIPP Baltimore operates joyful, academically excellent public charter schools and alumni support programming that prepare students with the skills and confidence necessary to successfully pursue individual pathways to careers of highest aspiration. KIPP Baltimore enrolls approximately 1,500 kindergarten through eighth grade students in two schools on a shared campus in the former Walbrook High School building in West Baltimore: KIPP Harmony Academy (grades K-5) and KIPP Ujima Village Academy (6-8). Including our signature KIPP Forward (formerly KIPP Through College) program, we support more than 3,000 current students and alumni. KIPP Baltimore is part of the national KIPP Public Schools network. KIPP (Knowledge Is Power Program) began in 1994 with 47 fifth-graders as a college-preparatory program housed within a public middle school in Houston, Texas; today, we are a network of 280 schools, 15,000 educators, and 175,000 students and alumni. All KIPP public charter schools are locally-run, non-profit organizations; each region is governed by a board of directors.

    Congratulations to my mentee Keon Rosado on graduating today from Morehouse College with a Bachelor’s of Arts in Political Science. It was a beautiful ceremony and President Thomas and the entire faculty and staff executed on a great commencement featuring President Biden as their commencement speaker. To say the least, it is a blessing to mentor Keon. I met him while he was still in high school. He has interned for me twice and exceeded every expectation. From the moment I met him, I knew God has His hand on him and he is living out his assignment. Today, I was so honored to witness his dreams come true, prayers be answered, and hard work pay off. Keon is so special that even Mama Wilson flew down to ATL to witness his graduation! Keon is a credit to his family, our community, and the entire City Baltimore. Next year, he will be attending the University of Delaware pursuing his PhD in History on a Full Scholarship. To say the least, he is family. His mother Kisha, grandparents, siblings, and extended family are so proud. He is a living testimony to the fact that when our children are presented with opportunity, encouragement, and support they have everything within them to meet the challenge. Bravo Keon! Your best days are still ahead of you! Shine…. Shine… Shine!! I call him “son” no because he is mine… but because he SHINES!! Congratulations to the entire Morehouse Class of 2024! #excellence #thisisBaltimore #morehouse #classof2024 #focusedtofinish #mentoringmatters Keon Rosado David Thomas Morehouse College

    Today marks a significant milestone for KIPP Baltimore as we launch our most ambitious campaign yet–Lighting the Path: A Campaign to Transform KIPP. This initiative is not just about transformational fundraising it's about making a tangible, lasting impact on the lives of students in West Baltimore, setting them on a path to success that begins in PreK and extends well beyond eighth grade: to and through college, career, and beyond. With The Baltimore Library Project’s historic investment, as well as generous investment from the France-Merrick Foundation, Middendorf Foundation, Abell Foundation Inc, and Sherman Family Foundation, we have already raised nearly 80% of our $5M goal. Huge news: KIPP's library media centers - set to open to students in August 2024 - have been invited to join the #BaltimoreLibraryProject! We're poised to transform our campus into a beacon of hope and educational excellence. But we need your help. By supporting our campaign, you're investing in innovative, accessible PreK programming, state-of-the-Art Library Media Centers, and restroom renovation to affirm the safety and dignity for all students and staff. Every contribution brings us closer to creating an environment where every child can thrive academically and personally. We invite professionals, corporations, and philanthropists to join us in this critical mission.
