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 57 schools in NYC a fair shot at reaching his or her potential.
As the fastest growing, highest-performing charter school network in New York State, Success Academy is reimagining K-12 public education. Nationally recognized for our innovative, whole-child school model and outstanding academic results, Success Academy educators are empowering children from all backgrounds with the knowledge, skills, and self-belief to succeed in college and in life.
Success Academies has a profoundly innovative schooling model that achieves outstanding results at scale, and our approach to children with Special Education services is just as radical. We begin with the core belief that disability does not mean an inability, that no child should be written off because of learning differences. Fifteen percent of our scholars receive Special Education support, and we designed and launched the Sprint program to ensure we provide these scholars with an outstanding education. While the identification of scholars in need of Special Education supports and the execution of the necessary interventions are carried out at the school-level, a supporting Network capability has shared responsibility and accountability for these scholars.
Reporting directly to the Head of Sprint, this role is responsible for leading and scaling high-impact Sprint operations across all schools. Success in this position requires both exceptional leadership and technical expertise in special education. The Lead will directly manage a team of 8 Scholar Services Managers and indirectly support over 120 school-based Sprint staff. This leader will be charged with driving performance, resolving complex challenges involving external stakeholders, and ensuring our most vulnerable scholars receive the comprehensive support they need to thrive.
