NEW Sussex Ave Campus

Step inside KIPP’s newest building in Newark, from the early days of construction, to the first day of school!

Following an extensive renovation in 2021, KIPP Newark opened their new Kindergarten through 8th grade campus on Sussex Avenue in August 2022. Some highlights from the new campus include a performing arts space, science labs, a gymnasium, cafeteria with on-site kitchen preparing fresh food, and a lounge where families connect with one another, or access a computer room and laundry. Collectively, these spaces allow students to discover and explore their passions inside and outside the classroom.

KIPP Newark parent, Ashley Carter-Anderson, was thrilled her son Carter was able to start the school year in the new campus.

“My husband and I are ecstatic that our son will have an opportunity to attend middle school in a state of the art facility. Every year we look forward to the start of the school year, but this year we anticipated that day with a new level of excitement, knowing we watched the campus transform right before our eyes.”
