Massachusetts, United States Excel Academy Charter Schools Full time

Excel Academy was founded in 2003 with the mission to provide a high-quality, free, and public education to students in East Boston and Chelsea Massachusetts, communities that are predominantly low-income and Latinx and historically have faced significant social and educational barriers. Our success in Massachusetts is proof that the opportunity gap can be closed and we opened a new school in Rhode Island in 2022. At Excel Academy Charter Schools, we believe that when a student has the support and tools to pursue a productive post-secondary pathway aligned to their personal identity and values, it can fundamentally change their life trajectory.
At Excel Academy we learn from our students, families, and staff and make improvements. We have increasingly adapted to provide a holistic education that values our community as collaborators in the learning process, social-emotional support, equity for diverse learners, and fosters identity development. Our team of passionate, intelligent, driven, and loving staff are at the core of the work we do.
The Head of School will set and drive the vision for the school and will have overall accountability for the success of the school. They will work closely with the administrative team to manage the school’s culture, academic program, and operations. Though the Head of School will lead a school that adheres to the core Excel systems, culture and philosophy, they will be empowered to innovate and adapt the model as needed. Excel believes that its distinctive performance is rooted in the quality of its school leaders, and Excel’s organizational philosophy centers on investing in people—starting with and flowing from Excel school leaders.
