Like many other charter schools, Harlem Success Charter Academy boasts an extended school day, a formal uniform, and classrooms named after the colleges their teachers attended. But it also remains committed to offering science, art, music, and physical education -- subjects that are often marginalized at no-nonsense, back-to-basics schools. The school, which opened in 2006 with a kindergarten and 1st grade and will ultimately serve students through 8th grade, is the first in an empire of charter schools planned by the Success Charter. . .
