Resident Teaching Fellows are recent college graduates who are committed to creating social change through service immersion, particularly in New York City. From the beginning, CCC has been shaped by our fellows: men and women who believe that access to quality education for every student is at the heart of enacting social justice. What is Cornelia Connelly Center? Cornelia Connelly Center champions under-resourced girls, empowering them to realize their full potential from 4th grade through college and beyond. CCC offers a thirteen-year program to girls living in poverty, partnering with each student and their family from fourth grade to college graduation. Through Connelly Middle School of the Holy Child (CMS), students in grades four through eight receive a joyful, holistic education. Our Graduate Support Program (GSP) serves CMS alumnae, persistently committed to their high school success and college completion. With Cornelia Connelly Center, a young woman learns to shine - transforming her life and our world. What does it mean to be a Resident Teaching Fellow at CCC? Resident Teaching Fellows are AmeriCorps service members at our Center who receive professional development, training and experience in the field of faith-based, urban education. Delivering key elements of CCC's program such as classroom instruction, community building activities and enrichment opportunities, Resident Teaching Fellows gain valuable exposure to the inner workings of a school and a non-profit in the Holy Child tradition. Resident Teaching Fellows are held to the same professional expectations as other Center employees, joyfully exhibiting an 'above and beyond' spirit for our students and their success. They also provide essential support to all aspects of CCC's program, including taking on active roles in our summer and after school programs. In addition to professional responsibilities, an integral aspect of the Resident Teaching Fellow Program at CCC is living in community. Through this community, the Resident Teaching Fellow Program creates an atmosphere of collaboration, support and mutual learning. Sharing a living space on the top floor of the Center, Resident Teaching Fellows commit themselves to be active and positive participants in their living community. They are expected to establish and uphold community norms and share in weekly chores. Resident Teaching Fellows share a kitchen and living area, and each have their own bedrooms. Resident Teaching Fellows become close companions and help each other to continually reinforce their commitment to the mission of CCC - to empower every girl to realize her full potential. By living and working in the same neighborhood as most CCC students and families, Resident Teaching Fellows are able to more deeply connect with our community.
