This school is amazing! The teachers are a extremely knowledgeable and experienced. The staff is very polite and always willing to help with anything they can. Everyone in the school makes the children feel like they are part of a family. Best decision I ever made enrolling my daughters and nephews!

I have my three children in Kipp Corazón upper and lower school. I love the communication between me and the teachers specially during this virtual learning time. I would and have recommended to family and friends. Overall I am happy and my kids are too.

Overall the school is good for learning but the leaders need a lesson in humility and should work on their team building.

My child has been attending KIPP since it was founded and I think the staff are great! Unlike the ignorant comment below, I am glad they are having important conversations and teaching my child about those issues that are so imperative right now.

I’m a former KIPP parents and decided to switch my child to KIPP Corazón thinking it was the best choice for her. Academically the school is comparable to other KIPP schools, however their approach to sex education is horrible. They leave parents completely out of the loop as far as letting them know what they will be teaching and they went as far as telling 4th grade students that they can never be too young to know if they want to change their gender! Who does this?! The teachers went as far as teaching them of genders even us parents didn’t even know existed. Why not educate the parents first or at least send a consent form home first before doing this. What good are academics if they are messing with the values us parents have at home. Just because staff there is openly gay or lesbian doesn’t mean that parents need to deal with this unethical curriculum they are choosing to teach young children. I took my kids out immediately! There’s no way I will allow them to mess up my kids just to let their staff and administrators be open about their sexual behaviors. It’s a subject that kids don’t need to be exposed to at such a young age. Let kids be kids!
