My Story

 

As founder and CEO of Success Academy Charter Schools, the largest and best-performing public charter school network in New York City, I have made it my mission to challenge the conventional wisdom that children from low-income, minority neighborhoods cannot achieve at the highest academic levels.

Language is so important... I cannot imagine school without #poetry. Wonderful @robertsoncenter event on the power of poetry this week! #InsideSuccess

#ArtsEducation is core to schooling: it provides a vital outlet for creativity and self-expression, inspires engagement and a love of learning, and broadens children's understanding of and interest in the world around them.
“Where would my son be if he hadn’t gotten a spot at a public charter school? More kids deserve what my son has gotten — the opportunity to learn and thrive at a school he loves.” - @successacademy parent Maria Lopez
Wishing all of our families and educators a relaxing and reading-filled spring break!
Scholars, sending you love today. You have worked so hard this year, and we ALL believe in you. #SlamTheExam #InsideSuccess
