Student and Parent Handbook

KIPP LEADERSHIP ACADEMY AND KIPP LEADERSHIP PRIMARY STUDENT AND FAMILY HANDBOOK

Dear KIPP Leadership Families,

We are very excited and honored to be working with you and your student this year, and the many years to follow! Leadership is truly at the heart of all we do at KIPP Leadership. We are committed to building leadership within our students both academically and socially.

At KIPP Leadership, we make you a solid promise—the promise that in working together we will see your student to and through college. While college may seem a long way off, we believe it is our shared responsibility to ensure that our students are set up with the knowledge, skills, character, and habits necessary to graduate from college and positively shape our community and our world.

We recognize that reaching this goal will take a tremendous amount of teamwork on the part of our families, our staff, and our students. The name of the school is deliberate, to reflect this dedication to working together as a team, placing an emphasis on the importance of our school community.

A large part of having a strong community is having excellent communication. This Handbook is a first step in gaining clarity and providing you with important information. We want to ensure our families understand the policies and procedures that we’ve designed to help us provide a consistent, safe, and excellent learning environment for our students.

If ever you have any questions or concerns, please call the school; we are always happy to assist in any way that we can. Thank you for your continued support and we welcome you to KIPP Leadership, where together we will accomplish much!

With Gratitude,

Jenni Seckel, KIPP Leadership Primary School Leader
