About KIPP New Orleans
KIPP New Orleans Schools is associated with the national KIPP (Knowledge Is Power Program) Network, which recruits and trains school leaders to open KIPP schools across the country. The KIPP network is rapidly growing; there are currently 109 KIPP schools in 20 states, serving more than 32,000 students.

KIPP New Orleans Schools is a fast-growing network of open-enrollment, public, college-preparatory charter schools. The mission of KIPP New Orleans Schools is to create an influential network of public schools that gives students the knowledge and skills necessary to succeed in competitive high schools, colleges and the world beyond. KIPP New Orleans Schools currently operates nine schools in the Recovery School District serving over 2,400 students from grades Kindergarten to tenth grade. During the 2012 – 2013 school year we will be serving students in Kindergarten to eleventh grade.

At the start of each academic year, KIPP New Orleans Schools students and their parents must sign on to commitment to excellence – where they agree to work hard, have faithful attendance, and acceptable behavior. Teachers sign this document too, promising to do whatever it takes to help each of our students learn. KIPP New Orleans Schools commits to giving our teachers the tools and support they need to keep their promises, to grow as educators and individuals and to experience the rewards of team and family.

If you are resourceful and entrepreneurial – with high standards, high integrity and high energy – please consider joining the KIPP New Orleans team and family.
