Instrument Overview
The KIPP Character Strengths framework combines the knowledge of teachers and character researchers to outline a set of abilities and attitudes critical to leading an engaged, happy, and successful life. It is used by the Knowledge is Power Program (KIPP), a network of 224 college-preparatory, public charter schools. Pulling from a larger list of 24 widely-accepted character strengths, it focuses on seven that are closely tied to student success and well-being in college and beyond.
