About

KIPP Coastal Village (KCV) will open on Galveston Island in August of 2009 with pre-kindergarten, kindergarten and first grade, with plans to grow to eighth grade. As a result of the devastation caused by Hurricane Ike, we believe KCV will also be a critical part of rebuilding the city of Galveston.

Mission/Vision

KIPP Coastal Village will create a learning-centered community of leaders prepared for successful graduation from college and ready to be the change on the island and around the world.

Ways to Get Involved

Support - As a network of public charter schools, KIPP schools receive the majority of their funds from state and federal governments. However, KIPP offers much more than traditional schools, including an extended school day, week and year, field trips and extracurricular activities. To provide KIPP’s unique educational program, schools rely on support from community members, parents and local foundations. To learn more about how to volunteer or make a donation, please visit the web page for KIPP Houston.
