OUR SCHOOL
Empowerment Academy is a dynamic and successful charter school that truly supports its teachers and staff. Empowerment has 3 of its own campuses, and BelovED is our “sister school.” We serve a mix of students that are among the most diverse in America while enjoying the cultural vibrance of Jersey City, Hoboken and New York City. Our staff is a dedicated group of individuals passionate about closing the achievement gap and providing a quality educational program.
WE VALUE OUR FACULTY
At Empowerment Academy, we emphasize teamwork and community and truly value our faculty:
- Evidencing this, compared to those with similar experience, OUR FACULTY MEMBERS ARE AMONG THE HIGHEST PAID IN NEW JERSEY;
- Moreover, we seek to achieve academic success without burning out teachers by meshing an effective education program with effective teacher supports and professional development.
TEACHER SUPPORTS
Teachers at Empowerment Academy are part of a school-wide team. They receive career-long coaching and professional development support from school leaders; work with their peers in professional learning communities (PLCs) to plan lessons and solve problems; and partner with an array of specialists to meet scholars’ diverse needs.
Examples of such teacher supports include:
- Abundant planning periods during the school day;
- A research-based curriculum and supporting curricular materials;
- High-quality formative assessments, aligned with the curriculum, that help identify when students have not achieved mastery of a skill, concept, or knowledge item; and
- Full-time reading and math specialists who tutor students struggling to master an essential skill, and counselors and social workers who help students struggling with non-academic problems.
Requirements
ALL CANDIDATEs MUST HOLD CURRENT CERTIFICATION AS A SCHOOL SOCIAL WORKER OR SCHOOL COUNSELOR, ISSUED BY THE NJDOE.
We are also looking for someone with at least 2 years of experience working in a similar role (beyond internship) and for someone who has Career and College Readiness Experience.
Benefits
Charter schools ARE public schools. Our teachers are part of the New Jersey Teachers’ Pension and Annuity Fund (TPAF), same as teachers at traditional public schools, and can transfer their pension credits from a traditional public school to our school and vice versa. Additional benefits include:
- Health Care Plan (Medical, Dental & Vision)
- Retirement Plan
- Paid Time Off (Vacation, Sick & Public Holidays)
- Family Leave (Maternity, Paternity)
- Short Term & Long Term Disability
- Training & Development
As an equal opportunity employer, Empowerment Academy hires without consideration to race, religion, creed, color, national origin, age, gender, sexual orientation, marital status, or disability.
