Network of 23 free charter schools serving grades TK–12 across Northern California
KIPP Northern California operates 23 public charter schools with a teaching-heavy workforce actively hiring across education roles. The tech stack is almost entirely Google-first (Classroom, Workspace, Meet, Docs, Sheets, Slides) plus PowerSchool for student records and Salesforce for administrative operations — a lean, cloud-based infrastructure typical of resource-constrained education systems. Active projects cluster around IEP implementation, social-emotional learning, and data-driven instruction, while pain points center on retention, diverse student support, and operational systematization — revealing an organization scaling compliance and student outcomes faster than internal systems are growing.
Notable leadership hires: Head Coach, Managing Director, School Operations Director, Learning Program Director
