We are a Team & Family

So we support our teachers to make the most of those gifts. It starts with respect – for our teachers’ innate talent and desire to learn, for their professional growth and the lives they lead beyond our walls. 

Together, A Future Without Limits

Together, our students, schools, families and communities share an ambitious mission to create a future without limits. And the only way to realize it is with talented teachers like you. Shape the future, for your students and yourself, by joining KIPP today. 

WHY YOU’LL LOVE WORKING AT KIPP

You'll Work With A Team That Lives Its Values

Whether in a school-based or campus support role, our team is dedicated to living our values. Together, we work in schools and communities, not classrooms. We contribute to and are responsible for shared success. Like a family, we act with empathy and support one another to build strong relationships. 

You'll Be The Change
You’ll be part of a national network of 270 KIPP schools and 3 dedicated schools in Tulsa and Oklahoma City. We believe in the infinite potential of all people. Our hope, faith, and optimism fuel our daily work and drive us toward achieving a more equitable and just world, starting with our KIPP scholars.

You’ll Be Valued
Our teachers are well compensated and have the tools, training, and technology to bring innovation to the classroom. 

You’ll Never Stop Learning
The joy of teaching is that there’s always more to learn. We support our teachers – from those in their 1st year to those in their 20th year – with individualized coaching, professional learning communities, leadership development programs, and extensive resource-sharing.

You’ll Have Fun!

Whether at a family movie night, a staff professional development with an impromptu choir and dance, or a gratitude celebration, we create and celebrate joyful moments with our students, their families, and each other.
