History
Named for the Kipps sisters.
Kipps Elementary is a kindergarten to grade 5 school on Price's Fork Road in Blacksburg that opened in August 1994.
Named for sisters Mae (also spelled May) and Florence Kipps of Prices Fork, who between them taught at the old Blacksburg High School for more than 75 years before retiring in the mid-1960s. Mae taught English there for 40 years and Florence for 35. The Kipps family homeplace adjoins the school site, which helped prompt the proposal to name the school for them.
