We insist that every student receives a world-class education while fostering a love for learning. We are passionate about changing the landscape of public education in New York City and beyond, and we are uncompromising in our mission.

Currently, we operate multiple elementary and middle schools across the Bronx, Upper Manhattan, and Queens. We plan to grow and open 1-2 schools each year because children in every community deserve excellent, equitable education.

• Comfort planning and hosting events, and willingness to work flexible hours including evenings and weekends as needed
• Experience creating and delivering presentations to internal stakeholders and community members
