KIPP Nashville Collegiate High School

KIPP Nashville Collegiate High School is a free, open-enrollment public charter school educating students of North and East Nashville with a rigorous, college-preparatory program. KIPP Collegiate is built around three core values: Excellence, Heart, and Growth. At Collegiate, our values guide our actions and decisions by grounding us in a common set of beliefs and principles:

• Excellence: We set the bar high and hold ourselves accountable.
• Resilience: We are positive and solutions-oriented in the face of challenges.
• Heart: We champion each other.
• Growth: We get better every day.

KIPP Nashville Collegiate High School was founded in 2014 in response to the growing demand for a high quality high school that would equip graduates with the necessary knowledge and skills to be truly college-ready by graduation. Collegiate students participate in a four-year college-readiness course that supports families and students to build college-going identities, habits and skills.

In the 2017-2018 school year, KIPP Nashville Collegiate High School was recognized as a Reward School for student growth in the top 5% of all public schools in Tennessee. Our founding class of 2018 averaged a 22.1 on the ACT – the highest of any KIPP high school in the country and almost four points higher than the Davidson County average. 

Our high school alumni are expected to graduate college at more than triple the rate of their peers

In addition to a focus on college-prep and rigorous academics, Collegiate offers a wide range of clubs and extracurricular activities, including: soccer, basketball, cross country, dance, cheerleading, math club, spoken word and computer coding.

KIPP Nashville Collegiate High School is open to all students who are residents of Davidson County.
