Job Description:
BASIS Phoenix South | Anticipated Opening for the 2026–2027 School Year
About our campus:
Our Phoenix South campus is a Title I School. What does that mean?
“Title I” refers to schools that serve a high percentage of students from low-income families, and they can be found in both urban and rural communities throughout the United States. Through the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965, Title I schools qualify for additional funds and support from government agencies to help ensure that all children have the opportunity to be successful.
Teachers are drawn to teach in Title I schools for a variety of reasons. Many want to make a difference for high-needs students and/or give back to their own communities. Others have been inspired by their own influential teachers and want to be “that one teacher” for their own students.
BASIS Phoenix South is building a strong candidate pool for anticipated English Teacher (Subject Expert Teacher – SET) openings for the 2026–2027 school year. The English Teacher (SET) is responsible for ensuring the day-to-day delivery of exceptional instruction by preparing and facilitating subject-specific lesson plans. Subject Expert Teachers implement the established BASIS Curriculum while tailoring instruction to meet students’ needs and bringing passion and deep content knowledge to the classroom.
