Where New Jersey teachers come to learn

As a teacher, you’re looking not just to teach, but to make a lasting impact in the lives of your scholar. You may have encountered limitations in other schools, where your personal development was hindered by strict teaching protocols.

Or maybe you were dealing with large classes and didn’t have time to develop personal relationships with scholars or their parents. Maybe you’re seeking to expand your career horizons at a school that appreciates innovative teaching methods. 

Pride Academy Charter School is your pathway to becoming a better teacher. If you’re ready for a challenge and want to make a real difference for families in our community, please give us a call. 

 

Why work at Pride Academy? 

You’ll be welcomed into an environment that gives you the freedom to bring your ideas to the table – to meet the challenges of urban education. Through our community programs, you’ll help scholars to become powerful advocates for activism. 

 

At Pride Academy Charter School, you’ll become a better teacher. Because here, you’ll have skills that can only be developed through experience in an urban charter school. We keep our classes small, so you have the chance to make a positive difference in the lives of your scholars.

You are given the opportunity to empower scholars and families in our community, by going beyond simply teaching to truly empowering scholars and families to take an active role in creating the future they desire.

 

We’re looking for teachers who are:

  • Seeking to be a part of a school community dedicated to the values of Peace, Respect, Integrity, Determination, and Empathy. 
  • Open to learning innovative strategies to meet the challenges of urban education. 
  • Eager to continue your own growth as an active member of a professional learning community. 
  • Passionate that a quality education for all scholars is a matter of social justice. 
  • Ready to inspire others as a teacher-leader with your own unique talents. 

If this sounds like you, we’d love to learn more about you. Give us a call today and we can explore what roles might suit you.
