Teaching at San Tan

Where Passion Meets Purpose

At San Tan Charter School, teaching is more than lessons and grades — it’s about relationships, curiosity, and guiding students to grow with confidence.

Our teachers are the heart of our school, creating classrooms where every child is known, supported, and inspired to succeed.

Our Educational Approach

San Tan Charter’s teaching philosophy is rooted in rigor, relevance, and relationships. Here’s what sets us apart:

  • Challenging & Relevant–Lessons that connect across subjects and prepare students for real-world problem-solving.

  • Small Class Sizes –Teachers know each student by name, tailoring support to help them thrive.

  • Hands-On Learning – From science labs to team-based projects, students actively explore and apply what they learn.

  • Dedicated Teachers– Ongoing training and collaboration ensure our staff is always growing alongside their students
