When asked what their favorite time of day is, many scholars often say recess! ? Dedicated time to play is essential to the physical, intellectual, emotional, and social development of children. Through play, scholars are also able to enjoy the outdoors, build friendships, and use their imaginations – that’s why we have built-in mandatory recess blocks in our daily school schedules and always will.?

Did you know that scholars involved in clubs and teams earn, on average, ten percent higher of a GPA than their non-participating peers? Our scholar-led clubs aim to unite students with common interests and create lively spaces for academic, cultural, and creative exploration. We invite all scholars to engage with our school community, as it helps them develop new friendships, improve communication and time management skills, and embrace leadership opportunities. Plus, if a club catering to a particular passion doesn’t exist, scholars can create their own and we’ll support them to make it happen.

If you’ve seen our elementary school drop-off, you’ve seen our Senior Leaders greeting scholars and families each morning! Our SLs know everyone in their schools, greeting scholars by name with a handshake to get the day started. It’s also a great opportunity for families to engage with our school leadership and build our SA community.

Recently, we conducted an extensive training session for over 500 educators, dedicating time to ensure preparedness for the current school year. Our training involves a range of topics, including effective classroom management strategies, an in-depth exploration of our world class curriculum, and guidance to foster strong partnerships with parents. With this comprehensive preparation, our teachers are equipped to inspire and educate the minds of the future.

10 years ago, we opened our doors to our first high school, Success Academy of the Liberal Arts Manhattan. Now, a decade later, we have three incredible high schools full of competitive arts and athletics programs, dual-enrollment opportunities with some of NYC’s most notable institutions, and 100% of our scholars accepted to 4 year colleges (a stat that has been maintained since the very first class)! This year, we will have two graduating senior classes - our Harlem High School will celebrate its inaugural graduating class - marking another incredible milestone for our high schools. We are so excited to see our three high schools support the paths of the next generation!

See how we’re all back in school, dressed in our uniforms, and ready to learn? Very mindful!
