Schools and Programs
Balsz School District is a small district that makes a big impact — we serve culturally and linguistically diverse populations, change students’ lives and impact the community at large. Working at Balsz means you empower students to be globally competitive and innovative thinkers who we know will change the world for the better.
Our district consists of six exceptional schools in east Phoenix — Orangedale Early Learning Center, Brunson-Lee Elementary, Crockett Elementary, Griffith Elementary, Tillman Middle School, and the new Balsz Online Academy. It is home to hundreds of dedicated, professional educators who place our children and families as their top priority.
While each school is different and has its own strengths, there are some common threads throughout the culture you’ll see at all Balsz schools — we focus on creating safe, inclusive and diverse learning environments that are a nurturing place for children to grow and develop.
