It’s About Equity
Gender and race matter in schooling, not because girls (and girls of color) learn differently, but because of normative social and cultural beliefs that often obstruct the progress of young women, and especially young women of color. These beliefs play a prominent role not just in the classroom, but across entire school systems.
Ability is equally distributed, but opportunity is not.
KC Girls Prep is working to break down barriers. We believe this investment will be seen by future generations as a crucial moment that helped change the narrative in Kansas City.
Students and teachers share how KC Girls Prep has impacted their lives.
Our students are ready to lead. We give them the space to do it.
We engage with rich literature, accurate and multicultural history, intensive learning in STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics), and meaningful enrichment opportunities.
We affirm young women of all backgrounds and ensure they approach academics with confidence.

4th
KCGPA ranked 4th out of 555 public schools in the state in terms of academic growth
Anything is possible when we lead with love.
The past four years have been tumultuous for low-income, urban public schools nationwide. Many continue to suffer stagnating and even backsliding results. Our high-growth model focuses on building foundations to ensure our scholars are on or above grade level by the end of eighth grade.
We are proud to report that KC Girls Prep had and continues to have results that demonstrate strong learning growth among our students as compared to peer schools in Kansas City and across the country.
