Who we arein the Words of our executive director
Dear team and Family,in under a decade, KiPP academy lynn has transformed from one class of 77 kids and families to a region of three schools in lynn and Boston, serving over 660 students and families. on the national level, KiPP now serves students at 125 schools across the country in 20 states and the district of columbia. our growth, in size and scope, speaks to the hard work of our students, families, and staff, who work every day toward a common goal: better life outcomes for 100% of our kids.
as we look toward a future where KiPP massachusetts will serve 2,100 students in five schools by 2020, we celebrate the accomplishments of our KiPPsters in 2012.
• in august, 90 High rock became the new home for KiPP academy lynn middle and collegiate High schools. although a building doesn’t make school, we are proud to have built a beautiful school on time and under budget.
• two thousand and twelve also represents another strong year for student retention with over 95% of our students returning to KiPP. this is testament to strong school culture, relationship building, and outreach to families.
• our KiPPsters are continuing to progress academically; 2012 saw our fifth graders achieve the highest science scores of any Kal class thus far with a 30% jump from 2011, and 85% of our founding high school freshman scored proficient or better on the Biology mcas – a test typically taken in the 10th grade.
• this year in Boston, a new set of KiPPsters and their families are commencing their journeys at KiPP academy Boston. the student body is 100% african american or latino, 90% of students are eligible for free or reduced lunch, and 21% of students receive special education services.
• most importantly, 85% of our Founding class of 2012 is now attending two-or four-year colleges. the class of 2012 will be the first of many that KiPP ma sends off to college, but they along with their families deserve special recognition for the grit it took to believe in a school that did not yet exist, and trust that a system which worked for students thousands of miles away in Houston, texas could work in lynn, massachusetts.
We understand that there is still much work ahead of us, and the climb will not always be easy for our KiPPsters. However, we will determinately continue to work toward better outcomes for our KiPPsters, their families, and the communities we serve.
thank you for helping to make our progress possible.
many thanks, much love,

How we are doingensuring better life outcomes for 100% of our students is a challenging goal, and succeeding requires a holistic approach. in order to reach this goal, we consistently measure both short and long term results and nimbly adjust to best serve our students and families. KiPP has identified six essential Questions to measure student outcomes, teachers’ performance, and the health of our schools while remaining focused as we grow. (Please see page 19)
our plan for the futureBy 2020, KiPP massachusetts will serve more than 2,100 students and their families at five schools in lynn and Boston, and each of our five schools will be 95% sustainable on public funding (based on current funding levels). nationwide, the KiPP network will serve more than 55,000 students by 2015.
Who we areKiPP massachusetts is part of a national network of 125 free, open-enrollment public charter schools serving over 39,000 students in 20 states and the district of columbia. We currently operate two campuses in the greater Boston area: our High rock campus in lynn, home to our KiPP academy lynn middle and High school, and KiPP academy Boston middle school serving mattapan and surrounding communities. today, we serve 664 students and employ 108 staff.
What we do our program is based on: a longer school day and year, academic and character development, a relentless focus on student outcomes and college completion, intensive professional development for teachers and staff, and a comprehensive K-16 continuum of services for students, alumni, and families.
our mission at KiPP massachusetts is to create an environment where students develop the academic skills, character strengths, and intellectual habits necessary to maximize their potential in high school, in college, and in life.
Why it mattersnationwide, just 8% of students from low-income communities graduate from college, compared to the 82% college graduation rate of their affluent peers. Preparing our students to be successful, not only to but through college, drives the work of KiPP’s school leaders, teachers, and staff. nationally, KiPP students’ college completion rate is four times that of their low-income peers.

Who we area national network
Research and development
the KiPP Foundation offers access to data from thousands of KiPP students so we can evaluate and learn from their successes and challenges.
Continued support for KIPP MA alumni through college
the national KiPP through college (Ktc) program allows students who leave the area for college to utilize the support systems offered within the KiPP community and externally through partner colleges and universities that have teamed with KiPP.
Effective national advocacy efforts
KiPP believes that fostering a collaborative teaching community is an important part of creating a path to better life outcomes for all students – not only those who are receiving a KiPP education. our work as a national organization is to advocate for a stronger education system and to, with others who are passionate about education reform, raise the bar for what students and families expect from an urban public school education. as the largest charter school organization in the nation, we are committed to being both a thought leader, and a convener of leaders with a common goal.
As part of a national network, KIpp Massachusetts has access to:
Unparalleled professional and leadership development programs
the KiPP school leadership Programs (KslP) offers a portfolio of programs including the Fisher Fellowship Program and the teacher-leader Program that prepare educators of all levels for leadership.
A shared knowledge base
in 1997, KiPP consisted of two schools in two states. today, the reach of the KiPP network extends to 125 schools in 20 states and the district of columbia. KiPP ma benefitted from the lessons and best practices of 26 KiPP regions growing before us. We have successfully scaled locally from 77 students in one school to 664 in three schools on our path to five schools and 2,100 students by 2020.

“Beginning on the first day of fifth grade,
we focus on both academic readiness
and character strengths. From the first
t-shirt our KiPPsters earn to evaluating
interim testing, we believe the middle
school years are critical to setting our
kids up for success.” anna Breen, scHool leader
“Founding Kalc required a great
deal of grit and zest on the part of
our students, teachers, and staff.
our kids are held accountable for
their personal efforts and results
during these transitional years.”
drea deangelo, Founding
scHool leader
“in Boston, KiPP has an excellent
opportunity to serve the students
who need us most. 100% of our
KiPPsters are african american or
latino, and 57% of them come from
homes where another language is
spoken. We are honored to serve
such a diverse group of kids and
families in Boston.”

What we do academic readiness
at the center of our work as teachers, as an organization, and as a national movement are outcomes for our students. We believe that academic readiness is achieved when schools build strong culture, solid aligned curriculum, and a continual cycle of assessment, analysis, planning, and action. developing our teachers and honing their craft is a critical piece of helping our students achieve strong academic outcomes; therefore, we invest in our teachers through an intensive professional development program (see page 16).
data and curriculum resources also play a vital role. our students take the nationally normed maP (measures of academic Progress) assessment which provides individualized growth goals for every student and allows teachers to target instruction to individual needs. We also administer interim exams to track student progress throughout the year so we maximize opportunities to re-teach, remediate, and challenge students. at KiPP academy Boston, students shift into flex blocks three times a day so every student can receive a mix of small group reading instruction and web-based reading and math at his or her level. all our teachers have access to KiPP share, a national site for
sharing curriculum and high quality instructional resources.
KiPP academy lynn collegiate HigH scHoolnintH grade Biology
in the 2011-2012 school year, KiPP academy lynn collegiate opened to its founding class of 96 ninth grade KiPPsters. Biology teacher Zachary lindemann believes that big ideas are fuel for thought. “giving my students something they can connect to, that they find interesting, leads them to be more engaged in the learning process.” His instincts were spot-on. eighty-nine percent (89%) of lindemann’s ninth grade Biology students scored advanced or proficient on the science mcas exam; a test traditionally taken in the tenth grade.

What we do character strengths
recently, the link between character development and academic success has been a topic of frequent discussion among educational leaders around the country. the connection between strong character and successful life outcomes has been the backbone of KiPP since its inception in 1995.
KiPP has identified seven specific character strengths, based on the work of dr. martin seligman and dr. chris Peterson, that we believe most influence a student’s ability to succeed: zest, grit, self-control, optimism, gratitude, social intelligence, and curiosity. at KiPP, we explicitly create opportunities to continually enhance and recognize the character strengths within our students. an example of this is the weekly “paycheck” system we utilize that places accountability for behavior and performance directly on the student. at KiPP academy lynn collegiate, students who exemplify and embody these character strengths are recognized by school leaders and peers at monthly assemblies.
“character strengths go so far beyond the classroom. our students understand that qualities such as zest, grit and perseverance can be applied to almost every situation in or out of school.”lauren esteBanell, Kalc counselor

at KiPP massachusetts, more time is a series of programs and philosophies designed to help students develop the academic skills and character strengths they need to live independent lives of choice. By receiving support from their first days at school to beyond their high school years (our K-16 continuum of support), KiPPsters remain engaged in learning and accountable for their own success as they persevere to and through college.

“i was able to develop many good academic habits in high school, but i learned them at KiPP. When other middle schoolers were rushing aimlessly through their school days, i was learning how to be an alert, active student who takes great pride in his work. i often find myself “tracking” in class though other students aren’t paying attention, or checking over my homework one more time so i don’t get an iHW. of course, these rules and penalties don’t exist here in college, but they are great habits that will continue to help me get the most out of my education.” KHalil Flemming, amHerst college student and Founding class oF 2012
“the motto, ‘there are no excuses’ has become a lifestyle for me. there’s no point in not doing the work and trying to come up with an excuse to give your professor. in the end, it’s up to you to put in the work towards your education because what you put in is what you get out. KiPP really did teach me valuable life lessons, and as i grow and mature, KiPP’s values still help me work towards becoming a better person and a better citizen.” natalia rosa, lesley university student and Founding class oF 2012
“What i learned at KiPP is beyond the scientific method and algebra equations; KiPP has helped me to develop a work ethic and mindset that have enabled me to succeed academically through high school and now college. KiPP allows students to see the bigger picture, to see that if you want something great out of life or if you don’t want your parents to struggle, you have to work hard at it. there are people who want to see you fail, but there are also people like KiPP that will do anything they can to show you that you can win and be the best that you can be.” cHyna HoPe, college oF tHe Holy cross student and Founding class oF 2012

Intensive coaching
• teachers are observed 15-20 times per year by their coach
• each teacher meets weekly to debrief observations, plan future lessons and analyze student assessments
constant opportunities for learning
• teachers participate in weekly group development sessions led by principals and fellow teachers
• at Kalc weekly professional development sessions are differentiated so veteran teachers have the opportunity to be pushed while newer teachers are grounded in strong planning and classroom culture practices
• teachers can participate in KiPP’s national retreats, communities of practice, and the KiPP school summit
student Data and curriculum Resources
• teachers have access to KiPP share, a national site for sharing curriculum instructional resources
• student data is gathered through internal methods and national tests to allow teachers to customize their teaching and hone their techniques
“Professional development at KiPP allows for teachers to continually grow and improve the same way that we expect our students to grow and develop. at KiPP i have a personal coach who observes me, gives critical feedback, and holds me accountable – it addition to the whole staff Pd that we have every week. it is what has turned me from a science major into a science teacher!”
Jessica naKaJima KiPP academy lynn science teacHer
What we doProfessional development
Because we at KiPP believe learning is a lifelong process, we offer opportunities for our teachers to learn from their peers within our schools and across the national KiPP network. We develop our teachers through regular observation, planning, and data conferences to ensure every student receives the extra support or challenge that he or she needs to grow and thrive. in order to ensure great teaching and learning in every classroom, we provide:

Why it matterscollege graduation: a national impact
*According to a 2009 report by McKinsey & Company: The Economic Impact of the Achievement Gap in America’s Schools Nationally, 36% of
students who attend KIPP graduate from college – More than 4x the rate of their low-income peers.

How we are doingthe six essential Questions
qUEStIon 1Are we serving the children who need us?our goal is to provide a college-preparatory education to underserved young people in lynn and Boston. last year, we served 84% students of color in our two lynn schools. eighty-four percent (84%) qualified for free/reduced price meals, and 13% received special education services. our new middle school in Boston has a student body that is 100% latino or african american, 92% of KiPP academy Boston students receive free/reduced price lunches and 21% receive special education services. overall, we are pleased to be serving the kids that need us most.
qUEStIon 2Are our children staying with us?We remain actively engaged with our students & families to foster long term relationships that keep our kids with us. For the past three years, KiPP academy lynn middle school has achieved a retention rate of 96% or higher, which exceeds most other charter schools and is the highest in the KiPP national network.
qUEStIon 3Are our children progressing and achieving academically?our mission at KiPP ma is to make sure our students are on track to college and career readiness which is assessed in a variety of ways including the mcas. eighty-six percent of our ninth graders scored advanced or proficient in Biology, which is traditionally a tenth grade subject. Fifth grade science grew 30 points and 5th grade reading grew significantly. For the areas in which our students did not show improvement we have implemented strategies to get them back on a path of achievement and growth including frequent review of student assessment data to better individualize, re-teach, and remediate, as well as providing more intensive coaching for all teachers.
qUEStIon 4Are our alumni climbing the mountain to and through college?this fall, KiPP sent its first class of students to college. eighty-six percent (86%) of KiPP lynn middle school’s original class 2012 began college at many great schools including simmons college, Keene state college and manhattanville college. to help them persist to and through college, the KiPP through college Program will provide social and emotional support to our college-enrolled alumni, as well as assistance in finding summer internships.
qUEStIon 5Are we building a sustainable people model?our teachers & staff are our greatest assets. in order to cultivate, support, and ultimately retain them from year to year, KiPP massachusetts places a strong emphasis on professional development, coaching, and leadership training. in Fiscal year 2012, we retained 96% of our teaching staff.
qUEStIon 6Are we building a sustainable financial model?in order to keep serving Boston-area students for years to come, we must make sure KiPP ma is financially stable. When our five projected schools reach full enrollment in 2020, KiPP ma will be 95-97% sustainable on public funding (based on current funding rates). our beautiful new school facility in lynn was built for 40% less money than a new high school building in a neighboring north shore community. as we progress toward full growth and a primarily publicly funded model, we will keep a sharp eye on how our finances affect our future.

In Fiscal year 2012, KIpp MA began the quiet phase of a five year, 10M growth capital campaign to support the growth necessary to serve more kids and families in Massachusetts.
our plan for the futurethe road to sustainability: growth capital campaign
investors in the campaign will help us provide:
• school start-up Funds: to subsidize early growth of each new school for several years until that business unit reaches full enrollment and public tuition funds (plus a smaller amount of private annual funds) cover the annual operating budget.
• Regional Headquarters/programs: up front, private investment in the management talent, capacities, and systems to support a larger network of schools, along with investment in programming (special education, alumni support, ell) that supports our region-wide to and through college outcomes.
• A strengthened Balance sheet: to improve working capital and support a growing budget and operating reserves as risk mitigation against unexpected changes in public revenue.
“the growth capital fund will enable us to build the infrastructure necessary to scale, and ultimately provide the sustainable K-12 education and alumni support program our kids need to be successful through college completion.”
