We are growing fast in New York and expanding to Florida, and we would love to welcome you to our community.

Hiring for School Year 2026-27!

Are you passionate, driven, and looking for an intellectually charged environment where you can make an impact? 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, 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, 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.

Career Advancement and Skill Development

Success Academy gives you unparalleled opportunities to gain valuable professional skills and advance rapidly with leadership opportunities available both in the classroom and outside. You will sharpen your communication skills, become a highly skilled problem solver, and learn to assess and analyze data to chart student growth. Engage in professional development opportunities with school leaders to benefit from targeted, in-the-moment feedback and coaching. 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.

At Success Academy, we invest boldly in our teachers through exceptional pay growth, comprehensive health and wellness benefits, and career pathways that enable you to advance into leadership within an average of three years! We offer intensive training, ongoing coaching, and salary growth with opportunities to increase earning potential through performance-based incentives. All roles qualify for Public Service Loan Forgiveness after 10 years; most schools are eligible for Teacher Loan Forgiveness after 5 years of teaching.
