Our Story
In 2019, Kansas City Girls Prep opened its doors with a clear, ambitious dream: to offer KC girls an extraordinary education in a space built entirely for them. As Missouri’s only single gender public charter school, we are proud to carry on a proven national movement, inspired by the Young Women’s Leadership Network, right here in the heart of our hometown.
