As the Coronavirus pandemic continues to create waves through the education sector, teachers and schools face an uncertain future. Due to the emergency measures implemented in mid-March, which forced schools to deal with school closures and the implementation of an online curriculum, many schools have fallen behind in their recruitment for the next school year. During a typically very busy time for recruitment, school leaders have instead been struggling with how to support students with virtual online delivery.

On June 1st, schools are set to enter Phase 2 of the DOEs COVID-19 response plan. Schools will begin to think about HR planning and staffing for the next school year. In response to the challenges faced by districts across the state, Klassroom, a state-approved teacher preparation program and teacher recruitment company will be offering its online recruitment platform to districts in Arizona for free during the next 3 months. Schools are scrambling to find alternative recruitment methods to fill vacancies as in-person interviews, and traditional hiring processes are upended due to social-distancing requirements.
