About New Dawn Charter Schools

All students must be given a chance to complete high school, and this includes students who may be struggling with traditional schools. The New Dawn Charter Schools are New York City Transfer Schools, reaching out to students who have either dropped out or are in school truants-those who will not graduate with their four-year 9th grade peers.

New Dawn enrolls students who are over-aged and under-credited in grades 9 through 12 and includes an intensive program for those students who are the most at-risk and difficult to engage in their education: the student who is over 16 years old and has fewer than 11 credits.

Students who fulfill all academic and internship requirements will graduate with a New York State Education diploma. As a transfer school, New Dawn will be no student’s first high school, except the over-aged 8th graders who opt for our intensive program. We anticipate a very large proportion of students with disabilities and a smaller proportion of English Language Learners. At least 82% of the students will are eligible for free/reduced lunch. Throughout the course work that is completed at New Dawn Charter School students will have access to internship and vocational training, one-on-one and group college and career counseling, a mentor based team of educational professionals and leaders who have implemented a rigorous and holistic instructional approach for all students.

We have two locations:

  1. 242 Hoyt Street, Brooklyn NY, 11217

  1. 89-25 161st Street, Jamaica, NY 11432

Key Responsibilities:

  • Develop and monitor IEP goals, attending all related meetings.
  • Craft academically rigorous and culturally relevant lesson plans that enhance critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
  • Prepare students for NYS Regents exams, Advanced Placement, and college-level courses.
  • Employ student-centered teaching strategies to meet diverse learning needs.
  • Adapt instruction from the common curriculum to make learning accessible for students with disabilities.
  • Collaborate and co-plan with general education teachers, implementing an ICT model or differentiated materials to aid student learning.
  • Analyze data from formative and summative assessments to improve teaching strategies and student outcomes.
  • Maintain a well-managed classroom that adheres to school-wide standards, ensuring a nurturing and orderly environment.
  • Establish a classroom culture of high expectations and mutual respect, fostering inclusion and a passion for learning.
  • Provide timely and constructive feedback on student work, maintaining open communication with families through various platforms.

Professional Responsibilities:

  • Embody and uphold New Dawn Charter Schools' mission, core values, and educational philosophy.
  • Engage in continuous professional development to enhance teaching skills and share expertise within professional learning communities.
  • Set high standards for students and self, demonstrating commitment to personal and professional growth.

Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s degree required; master’s degree preferred.
  • Prior satisfactory teaching experience is an asset.
  • Must hold New York State Certification in Students with Disabilities (grades 9-12).
  • Must pass a fingerprint and criminal background check.
