TEP aims to put into practice the central conclusion of a large body of research related to student achievement: teacher quality is the most important school-based factor in the academic success of students, particularly those from low-income families. In singling out teacher quality as the essential lever in educational reform, TEP is uniquely focused on attracting and retaining master teachers. To do so, TEP uses a three-pronged strategy that it terms the 3 R’s: Rigorous Qualifications, Redefined Expectations, & Revolutionary Compensation.

MANAGER OF TEACHER LEADERSHIP PROGRAMS
<br>
KIPP FOUNDATION
<br>
<br>
<br>
ORGANIZATION OVERVIEW
<br>
KIPP, the Knowledge Is Power Program, is a national network of free, open-enrollment, college-preparatory public schools in under-resourced communities throughout the United States. There are currently 66 locally-run KIPP schools in 19 states and Washington, DC, which are serving over 16,000 students. KIPP schools have been widely recognized for putting underserved students on the path to college. More than 80 percent of KIPP students are low-income and more than 95 percent are African American or Hispanic/Latino. Nationally, nearly 80 percent of KIPP alumni have matriculated to college.
<br>
<br>
At KIPP, we believe that there are no shortcuts to academic success. Outstanding educators, more time in school learning, a rigorous college-preparatory curriculum, and a strong culture of achievement and support help our students make significant academic gains and continue to excel in high school and college.
<br>
<br>
The nonprofit KIPP Foundation recruits, trains, and supports outstanding educators to open and lead high-performing college-preparatory public schools in educationally underserved communities. All KIPP schools share a core set of operating principles, known as the Five Pillars, that KIPP believes help to lay the foundation for students to perform at the highest academic levels: High Expectations, Choice & Commitment, More Time, Power to Lead, and a Focus on Results.
<br>
<br>
The 66 existing KIPP schools are a building block towards the fulfillment of the organization’s ambitious long-term vision to build sufficient scale and show that public schools can effectively level the playing field and provide opportunity to all students. KIPP is changing expectations of schooling among parents, teachers, district personnel, and policy-makers. It is our hope that these expectations will change not only in the areas in which our schools are located, but eventually spread across the nation. Bolstered by the proof that, with hard work and common sense, educators can eliminate the “achievement gap,” teachers, schools, and school systems will feel the pressure and develop the will to emulate the structure and practices that make KIPP successful.
<br>
<br>
Every day, KIPP schools are tapping into the potential of children from some of the most under-resourced communities in the United States. While we do not believe we are ‘the solution’ to the challenges facing children growing up in some of our most under-resourced public schools, we do believe we can be a powerful example of the transformative potential of a truly outstanding public education. .. -
<br>
<br>
<br>
POSITION SUMMARY
<br>
Having grown from 2 to 66 schools in 7 years, we recognize the essential importance of developing leadership capacity at all levels of our organization, and ensuring a strong pipeline of leaders both for future schools and existing ones.
<br>
<br>
KIPP’s Manager of Teacher Leadership will be fully responsible for leading the KIPP Foundation’s comprehensive approach to the development of teacher leaders within our growing network of schools.
<br>
<br>
Specifically, he or she will work with principals and executive Managers of existing KIPP schools to design and execute the Leadership Team and Teacher Leader programs that are part of our Leadership Pathways Programs. These programs were established in 2006 to develop the pipeline of leaders working in KIPP Schools. The programs specifically focus on developing teachers into building-wide leaders at junior and the senior positions. The Leadership Team program specifically focuses on developing teachers who are serving as or ascending into senior leadership roles at their schools (AP, Dean, Manager, etc…). The Teacher Leader specifically focuses on teachers serving in introductory leadership roles (Grade-level chair, Department Chair, etc…).
<br>
<br>
These programs will build upon the success of KIPP’s Leaders-in-Training (LIT) program which has helped prepare talented educators for school leadership roles including principal, assistant principal, and dean of instruction. Like the LIT program, these leadership development programs will serve both existing KIPP schools and other school development organizations that share our mission and commitment to underserved students.
<br>
<br>
The Manager of Teacher Leadership Programs will report to the Director of Leadership Pathways Programs and work very closely with other members of KIPP’s Applied Learning Team and KIPP co-Founder Dave Levin. This is a full-time position. The location is flexible but the preference is for the individual hired for this position to work from KIPP’s New York or Chicago office.
<br>
<br>

1. Design, plan, and execute the curriculum for the Leadership Team and Teacher Leaders programs.
<br>

CloudMade makes maps differently. We provide developers with access to a range of innovative tools and APIs that allow them to make the most of map data that is sourced from OpenStreetMap, the community mapping project which is making a free map of the world.
