SY25-26 High School Teacher

SY25-26 High School Teacher at Success Academy

The SY25-26 High School Teacher at Success Academy is responsible for providing a rigorous education to students in New York City's top-performing network of charter schools. This role emphasizes professional growth, leadership development, and fostering meaningful relationships with students and families.

Teachers are supported with extensive training and a proven curriculum, allowing them to focus on student achievement and social impact.

Job Description:

We're looking for passionate educators who are driven to make a difference in the lives of our students. As a teacher in our K-12 charter schools, you'll join a team of professionals committed to teaching and preparing children from low-income neighborhoods to be self-assured thinkers and leaders.

A background in education is not required. We provide extensive training and a proven curriculum so you can focus on working with your students instead of building lesson plans.

Career Advancement and Skill Development:

• You'll sharpen your communication skills and develop strong, meaningful relationships with students, their families, and your peers and mentors.
• You'll become a highly skilled problem solver able to tackle challenges in and out of the classroom.
• You'll learn to assess and analyze data to chart your students' growth and achievement, and tailor your own teaching methods accordingly.
• You'll engage in professional development opportunities with school leaders to benefit from targeted, in-the-moment feedback and coaching to improve your performance.
• You'll have the opportunity to grow as a leader and ultimately a leader of the entire grade team.

Minimum Qualifications:

• A bachelor's degree before your first day of work with Success Academy.
• A rigorous and relevant academic major (i.e., biology, history, chemistry, economics, physics, English, mathematics, engineering).
• Ability to work in person in New York City ($2500 stipend for qualified relocations).
• Supervise a classroom of 20 students.

What We Look For:

• Drive for Excellence: You set ambitious goals for yourself and have never been afraid of putting in the hard work it takes to achieve them;
• 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;
• Grit and Determination: You are not frustrated by setbacks — you see them as an opportunity for growth.
