We’re excited about your interest in Success Academy! Running a large, fast‑growing, high‑performing network of public charter schools takes a village — families, children, teachers, staff, advocates, and supporters alike. We are growing quickly in New York and expanding to Florida, and we would love to welcome you to our community.

As a teacher in Success Academy’s network of K‑12 charter schools, you will join a team of professionals committed to teaching and preparing children from low‑income neighborhoods to be self‑assured thinkers and leaders, capable of exploring and debating sophisticated ideas, and ready for college and whatever they set their sights on.
