Success Academy Charter Schools

School Year 2022 – 2023

For SY22-23, Success Academy does not require scholars to receive a COVID-19 vaccine. Please check the Health & Safety page frequently for updates.

Welcome Back!

Welcome to School Year 2022-23! Whether you are brand-new to Success Academy or returning, this site contains information and updates specific to this school year. You can find general policies and protocols in our online Family Handbook, but this site will always contain the latest health and safety information. We are proud that our school communities had low positivity rates last year — and that we were able to keep schools open. That's our goal for this year too!

Guiding Principles for Health & Safety 

(Updated 3.23) The CDC announced new guidelines and we have updated this website to reflect those changes. Please continue to check back.

We are taking a number of steps to protect the health and safety of our school communities and reduce learning disruptions: 


Scholar vaccinations:

We can't stress this enough: vaccinations are the best weapon we have against COVID-19. If you haven’t already, please get your scholar and every eligible member of your family vaccinated as soon as possible. We are not requiring scholars to be vaccinated. 

Staff vaccinations:

All staff are required to be fully vaccinated, including booster shots.


School visitors:

Per NYC DOE Policy, proof of vaccination is no longer required for family members and visitors entering school buildings.


Masks:

Masks will remain optional for staff, scholars, and visitors.


Weekly Testing: 

Weekly testing will no longer be required for unvaccinated scholars. We will, however, continue to maintain an ample supply of rapid tests and encourage scholars to test in the case of COVID-19 exposure or symptoms.


We believe these steps will protect our school communities and allow for on-campus learning with minimal disruption. We expect to remain fully on campus, and thus there is no remote learning option. For more information about COVID-19 protocols, go to the Health & Safety page.
