About KIPP TEAM & Family

KIPP TEAM & Family is the charter management organization of support teams - such as Leadership Development, Recruitment, Advocacy, Facilities, Finance, HR and more - dedicated to empowering our schools and ensuring the success of our students throughout New Jersey and Miami. Our schools are part of the nationally recognized “Knowledge Is Power Program” network of free, open-enrollment, college-preparatory public schools dedicated to preparing students for success in college and in life.

Our first New Jersey school opened in Newark in 2002 and since then our school network has expanded to educate more than 9,300 students in grades K-12.

In 2018, we grew our KIPP community in response to a need for high-quality school options for students in Greater Miami’s Urban Core communities. That led to supporting KIPP Miami, which currently educates more than 1,300 students in two schools, expanding to five schools in Fall 2026.
