Our Approach
At the core.
Our ability to deliver on the promises we make to students and families begins with our collective identity. At the core of our collective identity are three elements that describe what we will do, how we intend to get there and who we say we are. These elements include our school vision, mission, and values.
Our school vision.
KIPP Comienza Community Prep is built on the belief that great schools and strong relationships transform communities. Through rigorous standards-based instruction, character development, and learning experiences beyond school walls, our elementary students will become active leaders who take pride in their community and have access to choice and opportunity in order to ignite transformative change.
Our school mission.
KIPP Comienza Community Prep teaches the academic skills, cultivates the character traits, provides the learning experiences, and forges the community relationships needed for our elementary students to thrive in middle school, high school, college, and life.
Our school values.
- Courage. The ability to name, face, and overcome fears.
- Ganas. The desire to approach situations and challenges with grit and zest.
- Honor. The dedication to respect and love our community and each other.
- Reflection. The examination of our self, our community, and our world.
