Are Proximity Learning teachers certified to teach in Kansas?

Yes. Every teacher we place in a Kansas district is certified and meets KSDE licensure requirements. Teachers with a valid Kansas license can teach in any district through our livestreamed model. We also help qualified out-of-state teachers with Kansas reciprocity so they can start quickly.

How quickly can Proximity Learning fill a vacancy in my Kansas district?

Most Kansas districts are matched with a certified teacher and can start live instruction within days of signing up. Whether in Wichita, Topeka, or rural western Kansas, we shorten the hiring process so classrooms stay covered and students keep learning.

Is this the same as pre-recorded or asynchronous online learning?

No. Proximity Learning provides fully live, real-time instruction. A certified teacher is livestreamed directly into your classroom and follows your school's bell schedule, while an in-person facilitator supports the room. Students interact with a real teacher during every class period, not a recording.

Can Proximity Learning support Kansas special education and IEP requirements?

Yes. Proximity Learning provides certified SPED case managers, virtual OTs, SLPs, and school psychologists who meet Kansas special education law and federal IDEA standards. With special education among the state's deepest shortages, Proximity Learning can place these hard-to-fill roles within days.

Does Proximity Learning require an annual contract?

No. Proximity Learning does not require annual contracts. Kansas districts can bring in certified teachers for a semester, a full school year, or as long as needed, scaling or adjusting the partnership without long-term commitments.

Kansas Classrooms Face Persistent Shortages

As the 2025 school year began, Kansas classrooms were missing over 1,000 certified teachers, with elementary students suffering the most. The shortage is especially stark for special education students: despite 17% of Kansas kids qualifying under IDEA, only about 80% of special education teachers are fully certified.

Why Virtual Hiring Works in Kansas

Hiring locally in Kansas means competing for a limited applicant pool while meeting KSDE licensure requirements. This challenge hits hardest in rural western Kansas and high-need roles in districts like Wichita and Topeka. Proximity Learning’s national network removes that geographic barrier by offering and placing fully certified teachers into your classrooms through live, synchronous instruction within days.
