In the final episode of Season 1, veteran KIPP teacher and former KIPP student, Lorena Vega, shares two stories that give perspective on how KIPP Academy has evolved. 

Middle School ReMix

Thinking Back, Looking Forward

Students at KIPP Academy take to the streets (the ones just outside our campus) to march in support of all immigrants at and within our borders. 

DREAM Now

We dare to ask 8th graders what things they like and don't like about our new design - and those answers lead us to the real questions. 

They Like It, They Like It Not...

We swim inside the brain of one of KIPP Academy's wonderful 7th grade students - first day by day, then hour by hour. She learns, and we learn, a whole lot.

Pig Hearts, Kit Kats and Secret Naps

KIPP Academy students and teachers break down our Double-Dip Math Block model. We get into the good, the bad, and the reasons why it had to be changed - smack in the middle of the school year.  

No One Sucks at Math

We get into the details of KIPP Academy Middle School's ReDesign by focusing on thematic units and literacy circles. Current students do most of the heavy lifting, but we start by trying to guess your answer to a question you don't hear often: What do you remember learning in middle school? 

What do you remember learning in middle school? 

In the first ever episode of Middle School ReMix, former KIPP student and current KIPP Courage math teacher Yansy Salmeron shares her thoughts on why KIPP Academy - and probably most middle schools - should think about changing things up. 

The Case for Change

Middle School ReMix is the real-time story of how KIPP Academy in Houston, TX - the founding school of one of the nation’s most successful public charter school networks - is taking a risk and mixing things up to make a really good school into a transformational educational experience.
