High School Teacher

About Success Academy

Running a large, fast-growing, and high-performing network of public charter schools takes a village. Families, children, teachers, staff, faculty, advocates, and supporters alike work tirelessly every day to ensure children have access to a fun, rigorous, whole-child education regardless of zip code or economic status. We are growing fast in New York and expanding to Florida, and we would love to welcome you to our community.

When you join Success Academy, you play a part in giving every student who walks through our doors a fair shot at reaching his or her potential. We are looking for great minds with the drive to develop exceptional leadership skills, the collaborative spirit to elevate our learning community, and the passion to put their knowledge to work for profound social impact on behalf of children.

About the Role

As a teacher in New York City's top-performing 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. You will be capable of exploring and debating sophisticated ideas, and ready for college and whatever they set their sights on.

A background in education is not required. At Success Academy, we provide you with extensive training and a proven curriculum so you can focus on working with your students instead of building lesson plans. As we move rapidly toward our most ambitious years yet, you will sharpen your communication skills, become a highly skilled problem solver, and learn to assess and analyze data to chart student growth. You will engage in professional development opportunities with school leaders to benefit from targeted, in-the-moment feedback and coaching.

Success Academy gives you unparalleled opportunities to gain valuable professional skills and advance rapidly. There are opportunities to grow as a leader of the entire grade team, enter the school leadership track as an assistant principal, or transition to our network office. Most teachers are promoted to leadership positions on average within three years.

Hiring Process

To be considered for this role, applicants must hold a bachelor's degree before starting their first day of work with Success Academy. Please note that a background in education is not required, but a rigorous and relevant academic major is necessary. We are currently hiring for the School Year 2026-27.
