Middle School Art Teacher

Invictus Prep is a college prep middle school in Brooklyn, NY with a clear-cut vision: academic success for students in high school, college and life.  Our teachers are driven by student learning, high academic results, and work relentlessly towards our goals for our students.
 
While similar in structure to many other No Excuses charter schools, Invictus Prep differentiates itself through its staffing structure and class size. At Invictus Prep:
• We place high priority on our intervention programs to ensure that we fully address student gaps
• Class sizes are limited to a maximum of 24 students: By keeping our classes small, we are able to increase the amount of individual support we can provide to our scholars. We aim to maximize academic growth by creating a supportive, and highly focused environment.
