Congratulations to Kindle Education Public Charter School, which was approved by the Department of Education to open in Jersey City, only the second new public charter school to be approved by the Murphy Administration in the last five years.

Kindle Education will open the doors to a brand new facility in Journal Square in the fall of 2023 with grades 6 and 7 and plans to grow each year until the school serves grades 6-12. As a free, public school open to all students, Kindle Education will enroll a diverse student body and will not require entry exams or other selective criteria for admissions.

The school’s founding team, which is composed of educators and parents, says it has been working to bring Kindle Education to Jersey City for the past two years because of a need for more middle and high schools that offer student-centered, 21st century learning.

Kindle Education will be located inside 32 Oakland Avenue, a 15-story mixed-use development currently under construction. The school will be taking up space on the third and fourth floors and will initially roll out grades 6 and 7, with plans to grow each year until they serve grades 6-12.

The school aims to combine holistic personalization and deeper learning within an intentionally diverse school community that reflects the vibrancy of Jersey City. Kindle Education will utilize workshop-style classes and multiple learning pathways to cater to different learners, with full-time tutors available and complete student data housed on Kindle Education’s online learning platform.

Kindle Education is currently accepting applications for students who will enter grades 6 and 7 in the fall of 2023. To learn more or apply, visit KindleEducation.org or email info@KindleEducation.org.
