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 a high-performing, whole-child-focused charter school, we are looking for talented, invested Photography Teachers to join our community. We are looking for Photography Teachers to engage our Scholars in fostering a love for photography, exploring the creative process, and highlighting their artistic talents.
At Success, non-academic subjects aren’t “extra,” but essential. We expect our scholar talent teachers to be masters of their craft and share their passions, talents, and experiences in the classroom.

• Build a safe and joyful classroom culture where scholars develop both technical photography skills and a deep appreciation for the art form.
• Teach scholars the fundamentals of photography, including composition, lighting, digital and/or film processes, editing, and visual storytelling.
• Foster creativity while pushing scholars to think critically and conceptually about photography as both an art and a medium of communication.
• Collaborate with fellow Art and Photography teachers across the network to build a premier visual arts program, contributing to exhibitions, showcases, and making learning visible to the broader school community.
• Build a culture of self-expression while engaging scholars in discussions about photographic history, contemporary practice, and the role of photography in society.
• Participate in targeted Professional Development sessions, benefiting from real-time feedback to continually refine instruction and accelerate growth.
