In 2009, KIPP Inspire Academy opened with 80 fifth graders and one promise: that we would do whatever it takes to help our students climb the mountain to and through college. Seven years later, we continue to make-and keep-that promise, now serving nearly 960 students in four schools. With the support of our sponsor, Washington University in St. Louis, KIPP St. Louis eventually plans to serve more than 2,600 students in six schools. KIPP St. Louis enrolls students from every zip code in the city, and aims to bring the opportunity for quality education to those students living in areas without access to high-performing schools. Ninety-eight percent of our students are African-American, 96 percent qualify for free or reduced-price meals, and 13 percent qualify for special education services.
Rossman nurtures character development and leadership skills as well as excellence in academics and instruction. Nestled on a 20-acre campus in mid St. Louis County and equipped with state-of-the-art technology, Rossman School provides a superior education in language arts, mathematics and specialty subjects such as art, music, P.E., Science, Spanish and Social Studies. Teachers’ personal relationships with each child, made possible by the school’s 8:1 student to teacher ratio, and the strong partnership developed between the school and the parents, lead to academically well-prepared graduates who are thoughtful, conscientious, motivated and self-confident.
