Priority Roles
Early Childhood Special Education Teacher
At KIPP DC, we employ special education teachers to implement specialized instruction in our 20 schools (PK3-12). This position is for grade levels PreK3 – Kindergarten. Special education teachers at KIPP DC work alongside general education teachers, the student support team, and families to create and implement intentional and rigorous individualized educational programs (IEP) for our students.
Our special education team delivers services through a continuum of supports from least restrictive (i.e., inside general education) through most restrictive (i.e., self-contained programming) to ensure that students are receiving the targeted instruction they deserve. KIPP DC offers a variety of models that include both inclusion and small group settings. Special education teachers report to their school leader, while also receiving coaching and support from our student support team.
Teacher salaries are exempt and start at $65,500 and increase with years of experience. Please see the salary scale here. Teachers can earn up to $5,000 in renewal add-ons to their base salary each year they return to KIPP DC.
