About The Position

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 culturally relevant curricula that are grounded in research, 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. At KIPP, we see the unique gifts of everyone who enters our schools—especially our substitute teachers. Your adaptability. Your dedication. Your ability to step in and make a difference, whether for a day, a week, or longer. On both the easy days and the challenging ones, you help keep learning on track for our students. That’s why we value you. It starts with respect—respect for your talent, your commitment to students, and the flexibility you bring to each new classroom. We offer competitive pay and support that reflect our deep appreciation for the essential role you play in ensuring every student continues to learn and grow, no matter the circumstances. Together, our students, schools, families, and communities share a bold mission: to create a future without limits. That future depends on dedicated educators like you. Step into the classroom and shape the future—of your students and your own—by joining KIPP as a substitute teacher today. If you firmly believe that all students can learn, if you have a proven willingness to do whatever it takes to disrupt the opportunity gap, if you thrive in an environment that is both collaborative and entrepreneurial, and if you are eager to work alongside passionate educators committed to creating an equitable and inclusive school environment, then you have the makings of a great KIPP NC teacher.
