Welcome!

Welcome to the Robertson Center! We’re so glad you’re here. Whether you’re an educator looking for professional development opportunities, a parent in search of resources to help your child at home, or a thinker who wants to learn more about the work educators do, the Robertson Center is here to support you!

What is the Robertson Center?
The Robertson Center at Success Academy is where educational thinkers and changemakers come together to advance learning for all children. Through programming and content, we aim to amplify what’s working in Success Academy schools, share our lessons learned about creating strong K–12 education communities, and create space to learn with our external peers.

Who is the Robertson Center meant to serve?
We’re a forum for educators, parents, and thinkers to access a wide variety of content that will support them in any endeavor related to schooling. All of our professional development opportunities and materials are completely free of charge and available to those who are interested.

Can you tell me about Success Academy?
Founded in 2006, Success Academy Charter Schools is the largest and highest-performing free, public charter school network in New York City. Admission is open to all New York State children, including those with special needs and English language learners. Through our dual mission, Success Academy is redefining what’s possible in public education. We seek to build exceptional world-class public schools that prove children from all backgrounds can succeed in college and life and advocate across the country to change public policies that prevent so many children from having access to opportunity.
