The School

Broome Street Academy (BSA) is New York City’s only charter high school that is both a transfer school and a fully embedded community school in partnership with The Door. We serve over‑age, under‑credited students from across the five boroughs, many of whom have experienced housing instability, interrupted formal education, or significant personal challenges. Our students do not need lowered expectations. They need rigorous instruction, consistency, and adults who believe in their ability to succeed. BSA is currently in an active turnaround phase focused on strengthening attendance, academic rigor, and Regents performance. We are building systems that are coherent, urgent, and measurable and we are looking for teachers who are ready to do meaningful work in that environment.
