Every School. Every Student. Every Day.
Knowledge is Power Program (KIPP) North Carolina, is a network of eight tuition‑free, college‑preparatory public charter schools educating approximately 3,000 students in grades K‑12 in Durham, Halifax, Northampton and Mecklenburg counties. At KIPP NC, we are committed to improving the life outcomes of North Carolina’s children through the delivery of research‑based, rigorous curricula, and clearing the paths that our students choose to follow by ensuring that they have the roadmaps and guideposts they need to arrive at success – however they define it.

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 the hard days. We support our teachers to make the most of those gifts through respect for their talent and desire to learn, professional growth, and life beyond our walls. We offer pay and benefits that reflect our appreciation for the invaluable role our teachers play in lighting paths to opportunity for our students.

As teachers progress, we ensure they feel the KIPP Team and Family at their backs, with opportunities to lead and grow.
