Summary

KIPP Soul Primary is a public charter elementary school in Atlanta, Georgia, serving 410 students in grades K-4. The school is part of the Atlanta Public Schools district, which is ranked 139 out of 206 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

KIPP Soul Primary's academic performance is significantly lower than the district and state averages. In 2024-2025, only 17.8% of 3rd graders were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 34.9% for Atlanta Public Schools and the state. The school also has an extremely high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 94.88% to 100% over the past few years, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. Despite spending $20,864 per student, which is higher than nearby public schools, and having a student-teacher ratio that has varied from 13.7 to 17.3, KIPP Soul Primary's academic outcomes remain significantly lower than those of nearby Westside Atlanta Charter School and The Kindezi School, which have much higher test scores across all grade levels and subjects.

The data suggests that KIPP Soul Primary is struggling academically compared to both nearby charter and traditional public schools, such as William M. Boyd Elementary and Harper-Archer Elementary. To improve student outcomes, the school may need to implement more targeted interventions and support systems to address the unique needs of its student population.
