Kipp Indy College Prep Middle has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 93.0% of the population qualifies for free or reduced-price lunch

Kipp Indy College Prep Middle chronic absenteeism rate is 64.5% — well above typical (typically associated with unusually large scale or acute resource constraints)
