This role offers extensive training, professional development opportunities, and the chance to significantly impact students' lives and education.

Thanks for your interest in Success Academy Running the largest, fastest-growing, and highest-performing network of public charter schools in New York City takes a village - families, children, teachers, staff and faculty, advocates and supporters alike. We would love to welcome you to our community We work tirelessly every day to ensure each child in NYC has access to a fun, rigorous, whole-child education regardless of zip code or economic status. When you join SA, you play a part in giving every student who walks through the doors of one of our 53 schools in NYC a fair shot at reaching his or her potential.

Job Description:

**February 20th will be the last start date for all SY23-24 Elementary and Middle School teachers. High School positions will continue to be filled on a rolling basis. We are actively hiring for all positions for SY24-25.**

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

At Success Academy, our Science program ignites a passion in scholars for scientific thinking and curiosity. We develop our scholars as citizens of science, empowering them to engage creatively, critically, and meaningfully with the world around them in ways that are endlessly fascinating, complex, and philosophical. 

Scholars engage flexibly with different scientific disciplines, compelling them to see engineering, physics, mathematics, chemistry, and biology as all interdependent. We also place a strong emphasis on scientific literacy, with special attention to reading, writing, and data literacy. 

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.

  • Become a highly skilled problem solver able to tackle challenges in and out of the classroom.

  • Learn to assess and analyze data to chart your students’ growth and achievement, and tailor your own teaching methods accordingly.

  • Engage in professional development opportunities with school leaders to benefit from targeted, in-the-moment feedback and coaching to improve your performance.

  • Have the opportunity to grow as a leader and ultimately a leader of the entire grade team. There are also opportunities to enter our school leadership track as an assistant principal as well as to transition to our network office. 

Minimum Qualifications:

  • A bachelor’s degree before your first day of work with Success Academy

  • A rigorous and relevant academic major (i.e, biology, chemistry, physics, engineering)

  • Ability to work in person in New York City ($2500 stipend for qualified relocations)

  • Supervise a classroom of 20+ students

  • Confidence and Presence: You enjoy taking the lead and inspiring others with your passion and commitment;

  • Passion for Content: You relish literature, science, history, and/or math and independently seek to deepen your knowledge of subjects that interest you;

  • Planning and Organizational Skills: You have experience juggling multiple responsibilities and are able to plan around competing priorities;

  • Emotional Intelligence: You have strong instincts for building trusting relationships with people from a wide range of backgrounds;

  • Learner: You are intellectually curious and are motivated to master new skills. You welcome feedback and coaching that will help you achieve your goals; and
