Located in rural northeastern North Carolina, KIPP Gaston College Preparatory (GCP) was started in 2001 with just a founding class of fifth graders. Now eleven years later, GCP has over 700 students in 5-12, and next year we will be adding a founding class of kindergarterners as we expand and create GCP Primary. The mission of our campus is to empower all of our students with the knowledge, skills, and character necessary to succeed in college, strengthen their communities and fight for social justice.
