About Us

Founded in 2013, KIPP Vision Primary School was the seventh KIPP Atlanta school to open. Each of our core values aligns with our grade levels: Kindergarten – Love, First Grade – Teamwork, Second Grade – Honor, Third Grade – Excellence, and Fourth Grade – Leadership. We believe that each of our students should take pride in who they are (race and otherwise), their culture, and their community, in addition to knowing their history, and empowering themselves to know that their voices and actions matter. At KIPP Vision Primary, we learn, we teach, and we grow.

KIPP Vision Primary School is located inside the oldest Atlanta Public Schools building and shares the building with KIPP Vision Academy (grades 5-8), offering a full K-8 academic experience. In October 2020, the KIPP Vision campus will open a health clinic that will serve families and friends in our community.


Dr. Donald Rucker serves as principal of grades K-8 at KIPP Vision Campus. Previously, he served as the assistant principal for KIPP Vision Primary School. Dr. Rucker began his career in education after graduating from Maryville College. He began his education career teaching 4th Grade English in Hebei County, China, and shortly after 3rd and 4th Grade ELA in Greenville, Alabama. He also served as a founding first and second-grade teacher before stepping into the assistant principal role at KIPP Vision Primary.

Dr. Rucker holds his doctorate in School Improvement with a concentration in Educational Leadership. Dr. Rucker is deeply committed to creating equitable and dynamic spaces that cause kids to want to run to school each day.
