Some of our favorite pics from 8th grade promotion last week! We love our #classof2025

And that’s a wrap on the 2020-2021 school year! It’s been a strange and challenging year, and we have been grateful for our team and family more than ever. Here’s hoping for better days next year 😊

Dear KMAM Family,

We learned last night that Juan Rodriguez passed away due to heart complications. This news hits our school community so hard, as Juan and his family have been a part of our KIPP family for many years. We are sending our love, thoughts, and prayers to his family as they process during this incredibly difficult time.

Juan's genuine kindness, intelligence, athleticism, and coolness shined through every day, and it's impossibly difficult to think about him no longer being with us. He excelled in the classroom, on the football field, soccer field, and across so many groups of friends. His smile lit up a room, and his warm spirit brightened peoples' days.

Juan's family has started a fundraising page to support them with medical expenses and service costs. We hope that you will consider supporting Juan's family during this difficult time.

Go Ms. Mosby!!!

Our very own Ms. Mosby, 7th grade math teacher at KMAM, was selected by the US Department of Education to participate in a round table to discuss increasing diversity in the teacher workforce! “We know that students have better academic outcomes when their teachers who look like them. But there are more powerful levers in changing outcomes for kids: equipping teachers with the tools to engage in policy, paying families livable wages, establishing housing security, and access to healthcare. It’s really comfortable to talk about increasing diversity. It’s uncomfortable to talk about dismantling a capitalist system.”

She was also nominated by @thecollectivemem for the #RootedInMemphis award last week. You go Ms. Mosby!

We have had over 92% attendance this week, and we are so grateful to you all for getting a good night's rest, eating a healthy breakfast, and getting to school on time! Maybe next week, we can do even better!

Dear KIPP Memphis Families,

As we prepare for the end of the third quarter, we are again reminded of and grateful for your flexibility, patience, and commitment as you partner with us to educate our KIPP students. While recent winter storms and boil orders have prevented us from having in-person learning we are again excited to offer families in-person and virtual learning options for the fourth quarter of the school year.

Please complete a ParentSquare survey to choose which method of learning you prefer for your child: in-person or virtual learning. We have included resources to help you make the best decision for your child, including the KIPP Memphis Family Reopening Guide and our Reopening at a Glance Guide. These resources will provide answers to the most common questions regarding instruction, operations, and safety measures.

The survey is your opportunity to make your voice heard! Please complete this survey even if you selected in-person learning for the 3rd quarter. If we do not receive a response, your child will automatically be enrolled in virtual learning for the 4th quarter.

Please log into ParentSquare and complete the survey by noon on Monday, March 8. If you are unable to complete the survey online, please contact your school's office to notify the school of your choice. After we receive the survey results, we will make an official announcement regarding our return to in-person learning.
