Literacy Support Services

Please help support all of our schools by directly making a gift to our Special Education Services team. With your support we will be able to provide additional literacy resources to the students we serve. Some of the projects we hope to fund are a year-long subscription to Read Live, which is a research-based reading intervention program that focuses on decoding and reading fluency and assistive technology devices such as Dragon Speak Naturally and Inspiration Software to improve written language skills.  Additionally we would like to purchase computers for our resource rooms so our students with reading and writing disabilities could use the programs on dedicated computers. 

Thank you for visiting our page and for your support!

TEAM Charter Schools Annual Report

Ten Classroom Projects

With this year’s Annual Fund, 10 TEAM teachers will be sharing 10 individual projects to each raise $2,500 for their classrooms. This way, your support will directly fund their projects and impact our students more directly. Visit our Annual Report to learn more about TEAM Schools and the nine other projects. We’d love your help sharing asking you to share it with friends, family, neighbors and colleagues.

About TEAM Schools

TEAM Charter Schools is a network of four KIPP schools in Newark, NJ: SPARK, TEAM, Rise and Newark Collegiate Academy. Our schools are free, open-enrollment, high-performing college-preparatory public schools preparing students in underserved communities for success in college and in life.

TEAM currently serves more than 1,500 students in grades K-2 and 5-12 and will grow to serve 5,000 students in K-12 in the next decade. We are committed to serving the students who need us: 88% of our students receive free or reduced meals, 98% of our students are African American and 2% of our students are Latino. Both our demographics and academic preparedness of our entering students mirror the district. This past year, over 90% of our high school students matriculated to college, and to date, 83% of all our students have gone to college.
