In the San Francisco Bay Area, five KIPP middle schools and three KIPP high schools are closing the achievement gap between lowincome students and their more advantaged peers. These public charter schools are located in underserved neighborhoods of San Francisco, East San Jose, San Lorenzo, and West Oakland. Of the 2,800 students that KIPP Bay Area Schools serves, 97 percent are students of color and 76 percent are low-income.
