About

TEAM was founded on the belief that Together Everyone Achieves More (TEAM). Both inside and outside of the classroom, students are consistently engaged in character-building teamwork with the motto: Team always beats individual.  The freedom to innovate in the classroom both attracts great educators and allows their talents to drive constant learning and improvement.   We strive for constant improvement in all we do. Just as students are constantly learning and improving themselves, so too are the teachers and staff. Our students spend 70% more time in the classroom than their peers in traditional Newark public schools. As a result of their exceptional hard work and dedication, they are on track to reverse the odds for all students in Newark.  

Mission/Vision

The mission of TEAM Schools is to instill in our students the desire and ability to succeed in college, in order to change the world.

Ways to Get Involved

Support - As a network of public charter schools, KIPP schools receive the majority of their funds from state and federal governments. However, KIPP offers much more than traditional schools, including an extended school day, week and year, field trips and extracurricular activities. To provide KIPP’s unique educational program, schools rely on support from community members, parents and local foundations.
