Overview
KIPP Infinity Elementary School is a KIPP NYC school located at 625 W 133rd Street, New York, NY 10027, in Manhattan. The school serves grades K–4 [2]. The supplied evidence identifies the campus as KIPP Infinity Elementary School; the topic title uses the name “KIPP Infinity Charter School,” but the retrieved sources do not use that exact name for this elementary campus. Readers should also distinguish it from KIPP Infinity Middle School, which appears as a separate school in KIPP NYC’s school directory [2].
The school’s official page describes a well-rounded education that balances academic excellence with creativity and social-emotional growth. It lists core subjects, arts, physical education, and restorative practices, along with enrichment programs and family partnerships [2]. The 2025–2026 Student & Family Handbook describes KIPP NYC’s commitments to parents and guardians and covers topics including family collaboration, educational expectations, grading, services for students with disabilities, promotion, and academic integrity [1].
Location and School Identity
The school is listed under KIPP NYC’s elementary schools for Manhattan and is identified as serving grades K–4 [2]. Its campus address is 625 W 133rd Street, New York, NY 10027 [1][2]. The main phone number listed in both the handbook and the school page is (212) 991-2622, and the school email address is iesdoo@kippnyc.org [1][2].
Identity distinctions matter because KIPP NYC operates multiple schools with similar names. The school page lists KIPP Infinity Elementary School and KIPP Infinity Middle School as separate entries [2]. A reader looking for the elementary school should use the elementary school page and the INF ES handbook, not materials for the middle school. The exact legal or charter name may differ from the common name used on the website; the supplied sources do not provide a separate legal name or charter number.
Leadership information in the supplied sources is not fully consistent. The school page, retrieved October 17, 2026, lists Sundiata Addison as principal [2]. The 2025–2026 Student & Family Handbook lists Maylien Herm as principal [1]. Because the sources have different dates and purposes, this profile does not treat either name as permanently current. Families should confirm the current principal and school leadership through the official school page or by contacting the school.
Grades and Academic Programs
KIPP Infinity Elementary School serves grades K–4 [2]. The school page describes a curriculum that includes core subjects, arts, physical education, and restorative practices. It also states that enrichment programs and strong family partnerships are part of the school’s approach [2]. These descriptions are general program statements from the school’s official page; the supplied sources do not provide a detailed course catalog, daily schedule, or list of specific enrichment providers.
The 2025–2026 Student & Family Handbook’s table of contents shows that the handbook addresses KIPP NYC’s mission, core values, KIPP Credo, and commitment to excellence, as well as family collaboration, parent/family/guardian involvement, family and guardian communications, who to contact, educational expectations, the grading system, services for students with disabilities, promotion, important notes, and academic integrity [1]. The available excerpt does not include the full text of those policies, so families should read the complete handbook for details. The handbook is a network-level document that describes KIPP NYC’s basic commitments and how the network operates; it is not a substitute for the school’s current-year policies or for direct communication with the school [1].
Admissions and Enrollment
The school page includes a “Start Application” link and an “Apply Today” call to action for elementary school applicants [2]. This is the verified application route in the supplied evidence. The sources do not describe specific eligibility rules, application deadlines, lottery procedures, enrollment preferences, or whether any priority categories apply. Readers should not assume that living near the campus, attending a particular pre-K program, or having a sibling at the school creates eligibility or priority unless KIPP NYC states so in current admissions materials.
Because admissions rules and deadlines can change, families should begin with the official KIPP NYC school page and follow the application link provided there [2]. The school page also links to the 2026–27 INF ES Student and Family Handbook in English, which may contain updated family information for the coming year [2]. The supplied evidence does not include the text of that 2026–27 handbook, so this profile cannot summarize its contents.
Student Services and Family Information
The 2025–2026 handbook includes sections on services for students with disabilities and on family collaboration, parent/family/guardian involvement, and communications [1]. These headings confirm that the handbook addresses those topics, but the excerpt available for this profile does not provide the specific procedures, eligibility standards, or contact information for those services. Families seeking special education services, language support, accessibility information, or academic intervention should contact the school directly and review the full current handbook.
The school page includes a “Nearby transportation” section and references free general education bus service [2]. The retrieved text is truncated, so this profile cannot confirm route details, eligibility rules, or whether service is available for all students. Families should verify transportation options with the school or KIPP NYC before relying on them. The sources also do not list specific after-school programs, meal programs, counseling services, or health services, so readers should not infer that a particular service is available solely because it is common at other schools.
Interpreting Available Information
This profile relies on two supplied sources: the 2025–2026 KIPP Infinity Elementary School Student & Family Handbook and the school’s page on the KIPP NYC website [1][2]. Neither source provides enrollment counts, student-teacher ratios, assessment results, attendance rates, or graduation rates for this elementary school. The absence of those figures in the supplied evidence should not be read as zero or as evidence of performance. It simply means this profile cannot report them from the available sources.
Readers comparing schools should look for the reporting year, the grade levels included, and the population measured. For example, an elementary school’s assessment results apply to different grades than a middle or high school’s results, and a network-level figure may not describe an individual campus. The KIPP NYC handbook describes network commitments and policies, while the school page describes the individual campus. Families should treat the two sources as complementary but distinct [1][2].
Because the sources are dated, details can change. The handbook is for 2025–2026, and the school page was retrieved on October 17, 2026. The school page also links to a 2026–27 handbook, which suggests that updated family information is available or forthcoming [2]. For current school-year policies, families should use the most recent handbook and confirm details with the school office.
Contact and Next Steps
Families can begin with the official school page at https://kippnyc.org/schools/kipp-infinity-elementary [2]. The page provides a Start Application link, a contact email, a phone number, and a link to the 2026–27 INF ES Student and Family Handbook in English [2]. The 2025–2026 handbook is available as a PDF at https://kippnyc.org/documents/handbooks/INF-ES-25-26-Student-and-Family-Handbook-Final.pdf [1]. When contacting the school, families may wish to ask about current grade-level openings, application deadlines, transportation eligibility, special education services, language support, and before- or after-school care, because the supplied sources do not answer those questions in detail.
How to Verify Current Information
To verify the school’s identity, location, grades, and current application link, use the official KIPP NYC page for KIPP Infinity Elementary School: https://kippnyc.org/schools/kipp-infinity-elementary [2]. To read the 2025–2026 family handbook cited in this profile, use the KIPP NYC handbook PDF: https://kippnyc.org/documents/handbooks/INF-ES-25-26-Student-and-Family-Handbook-Final.pdf [1]. The school page also links to a 2026–27 INF ES Student and Family Handbook in English [2].
For state and federal school records, readers can consult the New York State Education Department and the National Center for Education Statistics, but this profile did not retrieve those records and therefore does not report enrollment, student-teacher ratio, assessment, attendance, or graduation figures. The supplied sources also do not provide a founding date, historical timeline, or verified enrollment count for KIPP Infinity Elementary School. When official data are available, readers should check the reporting year and the population measured before comparing schools or drawing conclusions about quality.
