About KIPP DC Public Schools:

By 2025, KIPP DC will build upon two decades of proven results to develop into a more impactful, innovative, and inclusive school system that provides joyful, identity-affirming learning experiences so that all students and alumni achieve extraordinary outcomes.

 

Our work is grounded in a commitment to excellence, equity, and justice. We believe all students have the right to rigorous, relevant, and joyful learning experiences led by exceptionally talented and diverse educators who promote student achievement and a sense of belonging. We believe students and teachers best succeed when surrounded by an ecosystem of supports, including our central headquarters team that supports KIPP DC’s 20 schools, 7,300 students, and 1,300 teachers, leaders, and staff members dedicated to this mission.

 

How it works:

The Capital Teaching Residency is a three year program. Residents spend the first year of this commitment—their residency year—training in a KIPP DC classroom with an experienced mentor teacher and completing relevant coursework through a gradual release model. Through our gradual release model, residents are set up for success by becoming an integral part of their school community and gaining more responsibility in their classroom over time. Residents have the opportunity to obtain their DC teacher licensure. 

At the end of the residency year, residents who have completed all program requirements have the opportunity to interview for lead teacher or senior resident positions at KIPP DC or one of our partner public charter schools in the District. Residents commit to two additional years of teaching beyond their residency year. 

Secondary residents can work in grades 5-8 (middle school) or 9-12 (high school).

 

What we look for:

  • Bachelor’s degree from an accredited institution by June 2024, all majors accepted
  • A belief that all students have the right to a high quality education where educators play an integral role in providing support so that all students can succeed
  • Unquestioned integrity and commitment to KIPP DC’s mission and to advancing its antiracist ambition through their work with staff, students, alumni, and families
  • Receives and reflects on feedback, while demonstrating an eagerness to grow
  • Shows initiative in generating ideas and solutions; solves problems and achieves results beyond what is expected
  • Quickly and positively accepts and adapts to new responsibilities
  • Excellent time management skills and a detail- and results-oriented team player who is dedicated to getting the job done 

 

In the Capital Teaching Residency, you will:

  • Follow a gradual release model, taking on increasingly more and different classroom responsibilities throughout the school year as determined by classroom need and resident performance
  • Internalize and teach clear and concise developmentally-appropriate content to support student learning
  • Gather resources and prepare materials to ensure strong student engagement in lessons
  • Track, analyze, and use data to drive teaching and instruction
  • Participate in regular meetings with mentor teacher and school coach, grade level meetings, and network wide professional development
  • Participate in and implement feedback from observations, evaluations, and feedback meetings with school leaders, and the Capital Teaching Residency team
  • Attend and actively participate in certification classes 1-2 nights per week facilitated by the Capital Teaching Residency team and complete 10-12 certification assignments and projects throughout the year
  • Prepare to pass three Praxis certification exams over Year 1 and Year 2, as required for Washington, DC teacher licensure.
  • Take on additional responsibilities throughout the school as needed

 

Compensation:

  • Residents will receive a salary of $52,000 during  year 1 (residency year). 
    • Following the residency year, residents who successfully complete the program are eligible to interview for roles with competitive pay including senior resident ($57,000), lead teacher at KIPP DC (starts at $65,500 - salary scale here), or lead teacher roles at partner public charter schools.
