KIPP CREDO
If there is a problem, we look for a solution.
If there is a better way, we find it.
If a teammate needs help, we give.
If we need help, we ask.
At KIPP Tulsa, we hold strong to our school values in order to create a culture of optimal learning. These values are modeled so that students can reflect and act on the cultural expectations.
- Respect . Students are taught to be considerate toward each other. All expectations of respect are modeled and simulated by teachers and other staff members.
- Teamwork: Students are taught to work together to accomplish daily goals. Teachers model this expected teamwork behavior through daily team meetings and effective communication.
- Commitment: Students are taught to value their commitments which include longer days and Saturday School . Teachers also adhere to these standards and continue to strive for excellence in their classrooms.
- Organization: Students are taught how to plan and organize daily assignments and homework agendas. Teachers reinforce this by prioritizing their time and meeting organizational objectives.
- Initiative: Students are taught to proactively go beyond what is expected academically, culturally and personally. Teachers also practice this initiative when working with students and parents.
- Balance: Students and faculty value the importance of a strong education and family worth. Their education and experiences will help produce healthy relationships with family and friends.
