At KIPP, we see the gifts in everyone who walks through the doors of our schools—especially our teachers. Their skill, energy, love, determination—on the good days and on the hard days. We support our teachers to make the most of those gifts.

• Support – As our teachers progress through the day, the year, and their careers, we ensure they always feel the KIPP Team and Family at their backs, with opportunities to lead and grow.
• Purpose – Together, our students, schools, families and communities share an ambitious mission to create a future without limits. We need talented teachers to realize it. Shape the future for your students and yourself by joining us in our work.
