School Description

           Liberty Academy Charter School was chartered and begun in 1999 and was recently renewed for five years. It is located at 211 Sherman Avenue in Jersey City, NJ 07307.. The facility is the former St. Paul of the Cross Grammar School. The charter authorized enrollment for 450 students in grades K-8; there are two classes per grade level. The class size is approximately twenty-five students. Coincidentally, the school draws its pupils solely from Hudson County.

            The staff consists of three administrators, twenty-seven teachers, eight full time teacher aides, three maintenance men, two security persons, two special education teachers, three basic skills teachers, one ELS teacher, one Spanish teacher and two gym teachers. The lead persons of Liberty are Dr. Anna Villafane, CEO and Mr. Andrew Morgan, Principal, who can be reached at (Tele. 201-217-6771). The board members are composed of ten voting members. Three members participating on the board are parents. The defining attributes of Liberty are it's mission to develop the whole child, Spanish, performing arts and a classic education considering the development of the whole child. Therefore, Character Education is strongly integrated into the curriculum. Liberty receives support from the Puerto Rican Community Association (PACO).

            Liberty Academy was renewed for five more years on May 13, 2003 with commendations from the New Jersey State Department of Education. While this was a great learning experience, the Board of Trustees, administration and faculty look forward to focusing on the Five Year Plan and raising student academic achievement. The process allowed everyone involved building closer partnerships and self evaluate and dissect the schools policies, procedures, curriculum and goals microscopically. While it is a glorious feeling to accomplish such a task, it is also exciting to move forward and work on the goals that we have established.
