Faculty Openings

SAS accepts applications for Faculty and Leadership positions in two ways:

Schrole Connect – Only for applicants who already have a Schrole profile
APLi* – Only for applicants who do not have a Schrole profile.

*Those who have both a Schrole profile and a Search Associates profile should only apply using Schole Connect. Please do not apply via both platforms.

Note that while APLi only requires 2 confidential references, SAS gives preference to candidates with 3 or more references, including your current principal, another leader at your current school, and at least one direct supervisor from your previous school, if applicable.

Unfortunately, due to the volume of applications we receive each year, we will be unable to accept or respond to direct applications via e-mail.

Applications for tentative openings will only be reviewed if the opening becomes definite.
