CQA IS GROWING AND WE ARE HIRING!

CQA is building a school and community where scholars learn the tools they need to completely change the trajectory of their lives and achieve long-term success.

Central Queens Academy Charter Schools opened CQA II, a new K-8 school for the 2024-2025 school year. This year we offer grades K and 1 at that school. We’ll grow by one grade per year until CQA II is a full-scale K-8, serving 900 additional scholars.

As we significantly increase the number of scholars we serve, we will also increase the number of staff on our team! Over the next few years we will add dozens of new passionate and committed educational leaders, teachers and staff to our CQA family as we enter this exciting new phase for our school community.
