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.
CERTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS
Candidates MUST either hold a New Jersey Department of Education CE, CEAS, Limited CE, or Standard Certificate in K-12 Social Studies OR Elementary Education with a Social Studies Endorsement (5-8). A K-6 Elementary Cert may be considered for one of the MS vacancies. Please do not apply if not certified or certification is not pending.
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:
As an equal opportunity employer, Empowerment and BelovED hires without consideration to race, religion, creed, color, national origin, age, gender, sexual orientation, marital status, or disability.
