The Queen City Difference 

At Queen City Academy Charter School, teachers are our most treasured assets. We expect academic and  character excellence from QCACS students, and our teachers help foster a dynamic learning environment  where students receive the necessary preparation and support to rise to that challenge. Therefore, teacher  recruitment at QCACS is a vitally important process through which we seek to attract and retain educators  with an immediately discernible passion for helping children meet their highest potential. Teachers work in  a collegial setting where the faculty and administration collaborate to ensure a high quality education  experience for students, while benefiting from supportive parent partners who are deeply committed to  their children’s success. 

The Queen City Academy Charter School is Plainfield, New Jersey’s first charter school. QCACS serves scholars in grades K-10 and growing to K-12. Our mission is to create lifelong learners and equip staff with the opportunities to successfully shape and transform lives by cultivating learners that possess the ability to be critical-thinkers and demonstrate leadership skills required to continuously open new doors which create generational successes. All staff are expected to be committed to the mission of QCACS, have a positive and professional attitude, exhibit a strong work ethic (including a willingness to work long hours) and possess an inner drive for personal and professional excellence. The Queen City Academy Charter School of Plainfield is an equal opportunity employer.
