OUR HISTORY: We are a two year old public charter high school, located in Chelsea MA, and serving students from Chelsea, Lynn, Revere and the surrounding communities. At the moment, there is no other school in the state (public, charter or independent) that successfully provides previously disenfranchised students with the opportunity to participate in a rigorous, college-preparatory program.

In September 2006, we opened our doors to 75 students; already, wonderful things have begun to happen:

• Students who have been out of school for years attend Phoenix Charter Academy every day.
• Students who recently immigrated to the United States are learning to read books—in English--to their own children (13 of our students are young mothers).
• Students who have never taken a leadership role in school now take part in the student government, provide tours to visitors, and participate in the hiring of new teachers.

Phoenix Charter Academy is built on an unshakeable belief in the capacity of our students to overcome these circumstances, regain control of their academic futures, and recast themselves as strong, well-educated, and self-sufficient adults.

OUR NEED: Part time Registered Nurse. Our students come to PCA with little health education, and few medical resources. Part of our mission is to help our students to learn to make healthy decisions about their physical and mental development. Our nurse will be an integral part of this part of our students’ education.

PRIMARY RESPONSIBILITIES:
• Oversee student medical needs, including the dispensation of medication.
• Work with the Special Education Administrator on the management of Independent Education Plan-related health needs.
• Maintain student medical records, including immunizations.
