Central Queens Academy Charter School is a high-performing, tuition-free, public school serving New York City Community School District 24. CQA I middle school opened in 2012 and CQA I elementary school opened in 2021. In 2023 CQA was granted a second charter to open an additional K-8 school. CQA II will open in August 2024 beginning with K and 1. We will grow CQA II by one grade each year until it reaches full-scale. CQA is looking for dozens of new educators to join our team as we expand over the next few years. CQA has a specific interest in improving academic and life outcomes for English Language Learners and recent immigrant populations. Our scholars primarily live in the Corona, Elmhurst and Woodside neighborhoods - some of the most overcrowded and diverse in New York City. The scholars and families we serve represent nearly 30 different nations from around the world. About 90% of our scholars are from low-income households and 80% would be the first in their family to graduate from college. CQA staff have an opportunity to be a part of developing compassionate global stewards and life-long readers and learners in a progressive environment in the context of supportive, grateful and appreciative families who are excited to collaborate; colleagues who are devoted to their practice, their scholars, and the school mission; and a leadership team dedicated to supporting professional growth by providing feedback and support. The hard work of our students and faculty have produced proven success. CQA has ranked highest performing charter middle school in Queens since 2014. We are one of the highest performing middle schools in all of New York State. Read more about our results on our website here: www.centralqueensacademy.org/results
