We develop young women to use their voices, succeed in college, and lead impactful, meaningful lives.
About us
KC Girls Prep welcomed its first class of fifth-grade students in the fall of 2019, becoming the first single-gender, open-enrollment charter public school in Kansas City. In our third year of operation, we have 170 fifth through seventh-grade students enrolled in in-person learning. We're growing to serve grades 5-8 in 22-23. We will grow one grade per year to form a middle school (5th-8th) and high school (9th-12th). Both schools will foster a strong sense of community and a rigorous, college-bound academic culture. This mission extends beyond college success. Girls Prep focuses on ensuring students become leaders for real change. Our inclusive approach to learning honors the diversity of young women’s cultural, intellectual, physical, and social and emotional backgrounds.

I'm convinced that no place steps up for education quite like Kansas City! It was an absolute joy to be among so many community members at Kansas City Girls Preparatory Academy's first-ever STEM Family Night. A giant shout-out to Vickie Albritton, the incredible science teacher who brought it all together. I'll happily trade pi knowledge for pizza slices any time!
