Over the past 25 years, the United States has spent billions of dollars trying to close the achievement gap with no effect.
Since TEAM opened its first middle school in 2002, its students have been narrowing the gap between Newark and the nation‌
‌ in just four years.
What TEAM’s students are accomplishing in middle school is not an isolated success story.
Knowledge is Power Program (KIPP) 82 schools 20,000 students
TEAM is among 82 KIPP schools around the country serving more than 20,000 students. 85 percent of KIPP students have gone on to college, twice the rate of their surrounding communities.

In 2014, SPARK Kindergartners will be the first TEAM students to enter our middle schools on or above grade level - not striving to catch up, but climbing further ahead.
THE CHALLENGE TEAM Schools, like the rest of KIPP, originally focused on middle school – a critical turning point in the trajectory of most students in our nation’s cities. Despite KIPP’s success in middle school, it began to become clear that the herculean effort necessary to close the gap in middle school could be significantly lessened if only we started a bit earlier. OUR SOLUTION This fall, TEAM Schools opened SPARK Academy in Newark, our first elementary school. Already, just three months in, 93% of students have made one reading level worth of growth on the STEP literacy assessment. If they continue on this pace, the majority of SPARK students will be on grade level or above going into first grade. The first KIPP elementary in the country, SHINE Academy, was founded in Houston in 2004. By the end of third grade, the founding class at SHINE outperformed every elementary school in the city of Houston but one. In 2014, when SPARK’s students enter middle school, TEAM and Rise teachers will face a new challenge: rewriting their curricula to serve students who are on or above grade level.
Jalen and his classmates have gone, on average, from knowing some of their letters and numbers to writing and reading whole words.
‘‘
At SPARK, Jalen is already learning how to count to 40 in Spanish to the tune of a guitar and crafting creative stories that demonstrate advanced writing skills for his age. At home, Jalen’s parents say he’s applying his vocabulary words daily, telling them he needs to be “studious” as he sits down to review his sight words. Jalen’s teachers are confident that as he travels the road through our K-12 network, a team of dedicated teachers with high expectations will be there every step of the way to ensure that he is prepared to spark the change he wishes to see in the world. - Ms. BELCHER SPARK School Leader
‘‘
Developmentally, kindergarten is the best time for them to learn as much as they can. Kindergartners are truly sponges. That is especially true of Jalen.
Each week, SPARK students master sophisticated vocabulary words like “restless” as part of a comprehensive and advanced kindergarten literacy curriculum.
- Ms. RONALLO Founding SPARK Teacher

In fifth grade, TEAM and Rise students enter two or more years behind and put in hundreds of extra hours to start closing the gap.* The result – fifth graders like Quadier have made a whole year of progress in just a few months.
* TEAM and Rise students currently enter in the fifth grade from neighborhood public schools. Once SPARK is fully grown to serve K-4, they will matriculate from there, already on or above grade level.
THE CHALLENGE Of the 191 students that TEAM and Rise have accepted into the fifth grade class this year, half entered reading at a third grade level or below. This deficit impacts learning in all subjects. Imagine trying to pass a math or science test when you can’t read the questions. OUR SOLUTION After a great deal of hard work by Quadier (pictured right) and his teachers, he has moved five reading levels - roughly the equivalent of one full grade level - in only three months at TEAM. Each student has an individual growth plan designed to meet his unique needs. Time is set aside for teachers to work with students in small groups for skill building, guided reading, and to ensure that every child is challenged and progressing.

‘‘
Besides making almost a year of growth in reading, I have found that he is becoming a more focused young man. He knows the work is within his reach and he knows that when he struggles he can find help. So now, instead of getting distracted, he is intensely focused on thinking about a text and participating in class. I almost can’t get upset when he calls out the answer. He is just so eager to share his thoughts and to show everything he knows.
His perseverance is beyond words. He works hard if not harder than his peers because he wants to prepare himself for college. Very few people have the determination Quadier has. And he’s only ten. If he continues on this pace, he will grow almost four years in one year’s time. That’s heroic .” - Ms. NAGLE Quadier’s Reading Teacher

When I was in fifth grade I wasn’t motivated like I am now. I wasn’t a bad student but I wasn’t focused on getting good grades... I didn’t think about going to college. I’ve grown so, so much. DAYZAH Founding member of Rise Academy Class of 2014
THE CHALLENGE Only 50% of Newark’s African American eighth graders score “proficient or above” on state tests in language arts, and only 29% pass New Jersey’s math test.*
OUR SOLUTION Each year from fifth to eighth grade, Rise and TEAM students make an average of more than 1.5 years of academic growth, twice the progress they would be making in the typical neighborhood school. Rise and TEAM students spend 60% more time in class and have access to their teachers after school hours and on weekends. Just as important as the academics, Rise students like Dayzah consider their school not only a path to college, but also a second home.
*Source: New Jersey Department of Education
In an assignment for eighth grade English (opposite page), Dayzah reflects on how overcoming her fears on school trips has helped her overcome obstacles in her academics.
‘‘
Dayzah’s resiliency is best demonstrated in her academic growth over the past three years. Dayzah, her family, and all of her teachers all express pride in her accomplishment of advancing as a struggling fifth grade student, who was reading below grade level, to an intellectually thriving eighth grade student who is
consistently grouped with the top quarter of her class in Literature. It is not an exaggeration to say that Dayzah is now an avid reader who motivates her classmates and family with her love of learning and open determination to attend college. - Ms. WILLIAMSON Rise School Counselor

At NCA, I have done things I never dreamed of, in and out of school. My work here is not normal work— it takes time and critical thought. I know I am ready for college. BETHANIE Founding member of NCA Class of 2011
THE CHALLENGE Just over 40% of Newark juniors and seniors pass the state high school graduation exam after three tries. As a result, 96% of Newark public school graduates who enrolled in college level coursework needed to take remedial courses.*
OUR SOLUTION While their peers in most Newark high schools are falling further behind, Bethanie (pictured right) and her classmates are completing a high school courseload commensurate with that of some of the nation’s top private schools. The majority of NCA students are on a college prep track that will include Calculus, AP U.S. History, AP Literature and an AP Science or Social Studies course. NCA students are also broadening their world - from studying abroad in France; to participating in a business plan competition at Columbia University; to traveling to Rwanda.
*Source: Newark Public Schools
Bethanie and her classmates at NCA helped write books for children in Rwanda. Over the summer she personally delivered these books to over 2,000 students.
On her way home from Rwanda, Bethanie wrote to her teacher to thank her for the incredible journey.
‘‘
The whole purpose for putting my kids in TEAM Schools was to let them do better. To be on grade level. I wanted a school that would challenge them. Now they are on the path I wanted for them. A steady path pursuing college. NCA is preparing them. I am extremely
proud of Bethanie and her accomplishments so far. I look forward to seeing where she goes and seeing what she is going to become. I love watching her grow. - BETHANIE’S MOM

After college, I see myself right back here, in Newark, trying to make a change. I mean, I want to change the world, but I need to start with where I came from. TEARRA TEAM Academy Alum Phillips Exeter Academy Class of 2010
THE CHALLENGE
AFRICAN AMERICAN AND LATINO STUDENTS
By the end of high school, African American and Latino twelfth graders read, on average, on the same level as White eighth graders. Of African American and Latino students who make it to the tenth grade, only 61% will complete a high school degree and only 17% will complete a college degree. In an economy with fewer and fewer jobs for high school graduates, lack of access to college for low-income students is likely to perpetuate the cycle of poverty.* OUR SOLUTION Before TEAM opened its high school, all of our founding class were accepted to college preparatory boarding, private, parochial and magnet schools. Today, TEAM has alumni at Phillips Exeter, Deerfield Academy, Loomis Chaffee, Miss Porter’s School, St. Andrew’s, St. George’s School, Montclair Kimberley Academy, and Newark Academy, to name a few. Seniors like Tearra are only a few months away from opening college acceptance letters and a few months more from being the first TEAM alumni to go off to college. At Place du Tribunal, Tearra and classmates study the differences between Roman and Gothic arcs.
*Source: Education Trust
Tearra and classmates visit the Palace of Versailles (above).
Tearra as an eighth grader at TEAM (left) is now at Phillips Exeter and has spent the past semester studying abroad in France.
Imagine this... What if our students never attended a failing school? What if academic rigor AND love of learning were instilled from day one? What if our students knew from their very first day that they were going to college? This is the case for our kindergartners. And one day soon, this will be the case for Newark and for the nearly 3,000 students on our wait list who all deserve an excellent education.
TEAM CHARTER SCHOOLS
WHO WE SERVE
GROWING TO MEET THE NEED
TEAM Charter Schools serves over 1,000 students in four free public schools open to all students in Newark.
We are dedicated to continuing to serve the students who have historically been most underserved in the traditional public school system.
In seven years, TEAM Schools has grown from one school, serving 80 students, to four schools, serving over 1,000 students, and TEAM plans to grow to serve over 2,500 students, four years from now. Despite our efforts, we cannot expand quickly enough to meet the demand from Newark families. Last year, TEAM Schools received more than 600 applications to fill 100 seats in its new elementary school, and there are currently nearly 3,000 students on the wait list for all four schools.
Our schools are in session, on average, from 7:30 to 4:00 pm each day, two Saturdays a month and part of the summer. But the true meaning of going “above and beyond” is not simply measured in hours, days or assignments completed. Our teachers go even further, changing lives and building bonds with our students that will guide them through college and beyond.
Admission to all TEAM Schools is lottery based. There is no test or entrance requirement to get in. Students and parents simply complete a one-page application or call our schools. The demographics of TEAM Schools closely mirror the demographic makeup of the surrounding public schools – 96% African American, 4% Hispanic and 80% qualify for free and reduced meals. Our students also have comparable special education needs to those found in our neighboring schools – 10% of our students qualify for special education resources.
TEAM is driven by the urgency of the educational need we see in the surrounding community, but we are committed to ensuring that we balance the imperative to serve more students with an unwavering focus on excellence as we grow.
Math
The students of TEAM Schools outperform their Newark public school peers in every grade and subject. NJ ASK
MAP
TEAM and Rise students, like all New Jersey students, take the New Jersey Assessment of Skills and Knowledge (NJASK) in grades five through eight. The scores above represent the percentage of students who are either proficient or advanced proficient. Note: Rise did not yet have eighth grade in Spring 2009. Scores shown are for the oldest grade at each school. High school students do not take a state exam until the eleventh grade.
The MAP test is a nationally-normed diagnostic and computer adaptive assessment in core subjects. MAP scores compare TEAM Schools students to tens of thousands of students from the across the country representing a cross section of American students and providing a national reference point. *Note: Only Rise Academy took the general science test in grades 5-7 in Fall 2009.
LEVERAGE Charter schools have the unusual advantage of leveraging private philanthropy with public dollars. Because 82% of our funding comes from public sources, every dollar of private support will go 4.5 times as far. SUSTAINABILITY TEAM also has the unusual advantage of reaching financial sustainability on public funding once our schools are fully enrolled (see chart below). The fundraising required is similar to a venture investment to get us through the startup phase. Once we are sustainable, the ROI of that initial philanthropy grows exponentially as we serve more kids for years to come. A gift to TEAM is one that quite literally keeps on giving.
COLLEGE COMPLETION
THE VALUE OF A DEGREE
TRANSFORMING NEWARK’S FUTURE
Nationally, only 17% of African American and Latino tenth graders go on to finish college.
Over the past 50 years the gap in earnings between high school graduates and college graduates has expanded rapidly. Today, the gap is at an all time high.
If TEAM can even come close to replicating KIPP’s national success, our current 1,000 students will earn over $1 billion more in their lifetimes than they would have had they attended their neighborhood school.

As a charter school, TEAM relies on philanthropy to support its growth to serve more students, its extended school day and school year and its acquisition and renovation of facilities for its schools. BEN COPE bcope@teamschools.org (973) 705-8326 x1009
TEAM Schools is seeking talented teachers, leaders and builders to help us close the achievement gap. If you or anyone you know would be interested please visit our website at www.teamschools.org/teach.
Over the past several years TEAM Schools’ students have benefitted from the countless hours volunteers have spent tutoring and offering one on one mentoring and support. Volunteers from the surrounding communities also host field trips, paint classrooms and participate in Career Days throughout the year. NATASHA DIMARE ndimare@teamschools.org (973) 705-8326 x1021

“As I walk around [TEAM] I realize the consistency of the school’s approach to discipline frees the teachers to have fun with their classes… The day turns out to be the most fun I’ve ever had visiting a school.”
“If the entire U.S., for two years, had top quartile teachers, the entire difference between us and Asia would go away. Within four years we would be blowing everyone in the world BILL GATES away… Now, there are a few places – very few – where great teachers are being made. A good example of one is a set of charter schools called KIPP.” “The positive energy at TEAM Academy is palpable. Not having to worry about baseline concerns – safety, politeness – liberates everyone to be more open and productive. When I was visiting, students came up to the principal easily, saying hi, or making a joke, or asking about some upcoming program.”
MAYOR CORY BOOKER
“The schools are remarkable. When I need a pep talk, when I need inspiration, when I need to understand why I’m fighting, sometimes I dip into the KIPP schools and see what’s going on.”
“The 1,000 young people at the four TEAM Charter Schools in Newark, NJ have opted for a topof-the-line education that demands more time, energy and brainpower than any [other] public school — and promises tireless support from teachers and faculty in return. TEAM Academy middle school is a place where it’s genuinely cool to be smart.”
“Work hard. Be nice. A simple formula, almost corny, but it works – at TEAM Academy, the students are attentive to their teachers and to each other, and they far outscore MOST other inner city schools, not because they ‘teach to the test’ but rather because they hearken back to a new-old idea: accountability.”
“KIPP is proving that with hard work and the right kind of discipline, children from poor minority neighborhoods can perform every bit as well as the most privileged middle-school students across America.”
“From Teach For America to the KIPP charter schools, we have proven strategies ready to scale.”
US SECRETARY OF EDUCATION ARNE DUNCAN
“A revolutionary new school system.”
