About BASIS.ed

OUR MISSION At BASIS Ed, our mission is to provide our students with a transformative K–12 education. Through the cutting-edge BASIS Charter School Curriculum, exceptional teaching, and faculty mentoring, we produce graduates who have broad intellectual capabilities, international perspectives, critical thinking proficiency, and creative problem-solving skills. We prepare our graduates to be leaders in their future academic and professional lives. WHAT WE DO BASIS Ed provides comprehensive education management services to BASIS Charter Schools—a network of world-class, highly ranked public charter schools. We oversee, implement, and manage the BASIS Charter School Curriculum, including the related assessments and training processes that make our consistently outstanding student outcomes possible. We also provide centralized support services to our schools, including human resources, finance and accounting, marketing, operations, and technology. Since 1998, we have grown from one BASIS Charter School campus in Tucson, Arizona to 39 campuses across Arizona, Texas, Louisiana, and Washington, D.C. BASIS Ed-managed schools serve over 20,000 students in grades K–12 with a proprietary innovative curriculum that sets students up for success. Over the next few years, we will grow significantly, adding campuses in our existing regions as well as expanding into new states. Today this network of open-enrollment public charter schools has the mission of redefining education and leading the U. S. and the world in producing breathtaking learning results. The promise of this vision is that expert, passionate teachers inspire their students to fall in love with learning, with the satisfaction to be gained from hard work, with the joy of intellectual and creative effort and with the acceptance of struggle and failure as an inevitable part of a productive and stimulating life. Learning is BASIS.Ed’s business. We manage some of the best schools in the world and we are working hard to ensure that more and more students will have access to the opportunity and choices we open for them. WHY WORK WITH US Passion and Pride BASIS Charter School teachers are passionate about inspiring students to love learning. They are experts in their fields, bringing knowledge, expertise, and enthusiasm to each lesson. Our teachers are treated as true professionals and are encouraged to bring their own passions and interests into the classroom. Freedom and Flexibility While we provide the “blueprint” of topics to cover for each course, teachers are given the autonomy to make each lesson their own. This flexibility allows our teachers to pursue new ideas, create new content, and innovate in a way that builds student mastery. Our Students BASIS Charter Schools are schools of choice. Families chose to come to our schools, so our students tend to be highly engaged, focused, creative, and curious. They are a joy to teach! Our Culture The BASIS Ed community is made up of talented, curious, and interesting educators. Teachers are encouraged to work with colleagues from around the country to incorporate best practices and cutting-edge approaches to education. In all BASIS Charter Schools, we cultivate a culture of learning where hard work and intellectual pursuits are celebrated. Opportunity for Growth By working with BASIS Ed, you will become part of a successful and growing network of public charter schools. There are plentiful opportunities for career growth and advancement--both at your own campus and across campuses, as we bring BASIS Charter Schools to new locations across the country.
