Summer Academy: Remediation & Regents Prep Teacher
Math, Engineering, and Science Academy (MESA) Charter High School is a community high school in Bushwick, Brooklyn. We opened our doors in August 2013 and we now have 498 students in grades 9-12. We graduated our first class of seniors in June 2017 and our cumulative graduation rate is 94%. Our students come from more than forty different middle schools, including traditional public, parochial, and public charter schools. Some are advanced students coming from magnet schools; others are beginning English Language Learners. What they all have in common is a desire to succeed; MESA students come to school every day, ready to work.
At MESA, we believe summer instruction should be focused on mastery, learning, and growth—not just seat time. If you share this philosophy and are looking to make a meaningful impact while earning extra income, we want to hear from you!
We are currently seeking experienced and passionate ELA, Science, Math, and Social Studies teachers to join our Summer Targeted Remediation Program. This program is designed to support students in mastering key content and skills, helping them build confidence and achieve academic success.
