School in the Square

Join School in the Square in reimagining PreK-12th grade education in Washington Heights and Inwood. A tuition-free public charter school, we were founded in 2016 on our "relationships first" philosophy: that students learn best when they feel safe, known, understood and heard; parents are motivated to partner when they are actively invited to participate in their children’s learning journey; and our professional team is inspired to lean into the work when they are valued, supported, included and invested in positive relationship-building across the community.

At School in the Square, you’ll find a diverse, inclusive and welcoming community–no matter your role. With four campuses serving more than 900 students from early childhood through high school, each of us contributes to shaping the next generation of learners, leaders and engaged citizens.

We invite you to be a part of a team whose mission-aligned culture offers sustainable, rewarding career paths in teaching, operations, and leadership, built on collaboration and mutual support. Experience the difference at a workplace that celebrates and cultivates each team member’s passions, skills and multi-disciplinary interests as we build a brighter future together, one student at a time.
