Summary

KIPP VISION Charter School is a middle school in Atlanta, GA, serving roughly 300 students in grades 6-8 within the Atlanta Public Schools district, where 100% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

The most exciting news for parents is the school's clear upward momentum. After a few tough years, KIPP VISION has climbed from the 13th percentile statewide to the 31st percentile in the latest rankings—a two-year jump that shows real, consistent improvement across nearly every subject. The standout is 8th grade math: 44.9% of students scored proficient or above, beating the district average (38.6%) and nearly matching the state average (46.3%). That's a huge leap from just 23.9% two years ago. The school also saw big gains in 6th grade math (from 5.7% to 13%), 7th grade math (11.3% to 21.3%), and 8th grade social studies (10.2% to 26.5%). For African American students, the school ranks in the 50th percentile statewide—a 3-star rating that's notably stronger than its overall ranking.

Compared to nearby options, KIPP VISION is holding its own. It significantly outperforms Judson Price Middle School (44.9% vs. 10.8% in 8th grade math) and Crawford Long Middle School (44.9% vs. 21.3%), and edges out Sylvan Hills Middle School in overall ranking. David T Howard Middle School remains a top performer nearby, but serves a very different student population. The school also invests heavily in students—spending $27,678 per pupil with a favorable 11.9:1 student-teacher ratio. Chronic absenteeism dropped from 45.5% to 30.9%, though it's still above the state average. With this trajectory, KIPP VISION looks like a school on the rise.
