Today, our network consists of eight elementary schools, nine middle schools, one high school, and KIPP Forward, a comprehensive program to support our students and alumni in choosing and preparing for the educational and career paths that fit their goals and sense of purpose.

Our Mission

At KIPP NYC, we believe in providing a college preparatory education that makes a positive impact on the lives of our students.

We are committed to creating a welcoming environment that includes employees with diverse backgrounds and experiences.

This enables us to better meet our mission and values while serving students and families throughout New York City.

  • New York State teacher certification in the appropriate content area.
  • Bachelor's degree required.
  • A passion for being part of a team-oriented, mission-driven school culture.
