KIPP Ujima Village Academy, founded in 2002 by Jason Botel, is now run by Principal, Alex Reese. KUVA is a public charter school serving over 540 students in grades 6-8.
KUVA is located at 2000 Edgewood Street, Baltimore, Maryland 21216. Part of the middle school process also includes finding college-preparatory high schools for our eighth graders. That support is provided by the KIPP Through College Program (KTC). KIPP Ujima Village Academy students go on to attend public schools and private schools across the Baltimore region. Many students attending tuition-driven programs also receive scholarships. At KUVA, we strive for excellence in every area of the lives of our students. Our motto is Excellence without Exception.
The mission of KIPP Ujima Village Academy is to empower students to explore limitless options and achieve their dreams by developing the skills and habits in academics, advocacy, and character necessary to succeed in college and life.
