2021-22 Return to Campus!
We are so excited to be back on campus in the new school year, providing in-person instruction 5-days per week at every school and grade level, for every student. With health & safety our first priority, we continue to follow State and public health guidelines in order to continue to provide a safe environment to maximize the benefits of being in person. Please review our Health & Safety Family Handbook for all pertinent information regarding our systems & protocols across all of our schools.
In an effort to provide the safest possible environment for our students and team members, KIPP SoCal will be requiring all team members to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19, show proof of vaccination by October 29, 2021 and are mandating regular testing for all team members. We are also offering and strongly encouraging regular COVID-19 testing for all students –– helping us in early identification of cases and prevention of the spread of the virus within our schools, our classrooms, and beyond our school community (if you haven't yet signed your student up for testing, please do so here).
Though we will not offer distance learning as we did this past school year, in the case that your student is unable to attend school in-person due to personal health complications, please contact your school leader to discuss eligibility for an Independent Learning Program for your child.
We know families will have many questions about what school return will look like, what safety protocols will be in place, and more. Please review on-going updates in the School Year FAQs.
