Dear Science Park High School Future Teachers :
I am so excited for the amazing experience you are about to embark upon. One of the most important aspects of any student’s educational experience, and particularly here in the Newark Public Schools, is being exposed to as many educational travel experiences as possible. This typically takes the form of field trips, however, even more doors are opened as our students take part in out-of-state, and in some instances, out-of-country travel. As Superintendent , and a former teacher and principal, I work to prioritize these experiences for you because I know firsthand how profound of an impact they can have. Your principal and teachers believe this too and designed this incredible experience just for you.
As you visit our nation’s capital and contemplate the sheer magnitude of the Lincoln and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr Memorials, while grounding those experiences in the cultural history and vibrancy of the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture , I ask you to take a moment and consider what insights you can take back to your fellow students, teachers, and family. Similarly, during your visit to Baltimore and the prestigious Johns Hopkins University, consider what lessons can make your school and community back home that much greater
As you may know, a key part of our district’s Logic Model is to have our students Reinvest, Reinvigorate, and Return to our City and District. By taking an active role in the Future Teachers program at Science Park High School, and embarking on trips such as the one you are leaving for today, you are playing an active role in the ongoing progress of our school district. We are becoming better and stronger because you are becoming better and stronger.
As future teachers, you are now in the first stages of what will surely be a noble career. Educational travel experiences, such as the one you are now embarking upon, will one day inform how you interact with your own students – and make you an even better educator. Our City, and students like you, have so much to offer this world and I have no doubt you will show all who you encounter on this trip what Newark is made of. Safe travels.
Sincerely,
Roger León Superintendent

The Center for Educators (CFE) was established at The College of New Jersey
The Center for Educators (CFE) was established at The College of New Jersey in 2010 as a collaboration between the New Jersey Education Association and The College of New Jersey to launch a new vision for statewide leadership in the identification, selection, and grooming of prospective future teachers, and to serve as an exemplary national model of future teacher development and recruitment. The Center was the natural outgrowth of programs previously developed and implemented over a four-year period (2006-2009) at The College of New Jersey under a federal Teacher Quality Enhancement and Recruitment (TQE-R) grant that was secured through a collaborative effort between TCNJ and the New Jersey Department of Education.
CFE was established to inspire, encourage, and recruit high school and middle school students who are considering teaching as a future career. CFE especially seeks future educators interested in teaching in high poverty and hard-to-staff schools and/or high shortage subject areas such as math, science, special education, world languages, technology, bilingual and ESL. The Center believes that New Jersey’s students are entitled to have the best, highly trained teachers that reflect the demographics of the state and promote academic progress and social skill development. CFE works collaboratively with schools, institutions, and agencies across New Jersey to develop exemplary models of future teacher recruitment.
CFE’s Goals
• Set the standard for excellence in recruiting today’s high school and middle school students as tomorrow’s teachers.
• Provide leadership for “home-growing” future teachers, particularly for challenging high needs schools and high shortage subjects.
• Increase collaborations with schools, colleges/universities, corporate, governmental, and community agencies to develop and fund future teacher programming.
• Promote teaching as an honorable profession dedicated to achieving the highest professional standards in the service of New Jersey’s students, schools, and communities.
• Conduct research and share trends pertinent to future teacher recruitment
