Teachers

At KIPP, teachers have the unique opportunity to change the educational outcomes for students in underserved communities across the nation.  KIPP teachers have the passion to help ALL students--many of whom begin KIPP one or two grade levels behind--reach their full potential.

As college-preparatory public schools, KIPP schools thrive on the motivation, compassion, and commitment of our teachers. Every day, our teachers embody the approach that makes KIPP schools successful: a culture of high expectations for achievement, a focus on results, and a philosophy that recognizes there are no excuses and no shortcuts in establishing a foundation for lifelong learning. And every day, these same teachers are helping more than 21,000 students in 82 schools across the nation climb the mountain to and through college.
