Teach at a Tucson K-8 Charter School Where the Arts Matter
Academy Del Sol is hiring talented K-8 teachers, instructional aides, and support staff to serve Tucson families at our two campuses — Star Valley (Firebirds) and Roger Road (Roadrunners). If you believe every child deserves rigorous academics paired with the joy of the arts, we want to hear from you.
A Tucson Charter School Where Teachers Want to Stay
Working at Academy Del Sol is more than a job. It’s a chance to teach where the work is meaningful, where the arts are core, and where every student is known by name. Here’s why educators choose us — and why they stay.
Mission That Matters
Serve Tucson kids who need great teachers most — regardless of zip code or income. The work you do here changes lives.
Fine Arts at the Core
Teach in a school where music, visual arts, theater, and movement are part of every day — not an afterthought. Integrate the arts into your subject area.
Small Schools, Real Community
Two intimate K-8 campuses where teachers, families, and students actually know each other. No anonymous hallways.
Supportive Leadership
Campus leaders, an experienced management partner (AEG), and a collaborative culture that has your back when you walk into the classroom.
Professional Growth
Ongoing professional development, instructional coaching, and the chance to grow into leadership roles within ADS.
Serving Tucson
Live and work in one of the most beautiful, culturally rich cities in the Southwest. Make a real difference in your community.
What Teaching at Academy Del Sol Looks Like
Teaching at ADS isn’t just about lesson plans. It’s about knowing every student by name, integrating creativity into every subject, and watching kids light up when they discover what they’re capable of.
You’ll have the support you need to do your best work — instructional coaching, collaborative planning time, and leaders who believe in you. And you’ll be part of a community of educators who genuinely love coming to work.
- Arts integration freedom — bring music, art, theater, or movement into your subject in ways that make sense for you
- Collaborative culture — work alongside teachers who challenge and support each other
- Real instructional support — coaching, professional development, and leadership investment in your growth
- Diverse students & families — serve Tucson’s vibrant, multicultural community at both campuses
