What to Expect After Applying
For certified positions, principals will first consider internal applicants. If needed, principals will screen the online external applicants and choose the candidates for building interviews that match the criteria for their openings. Building interviews can be a phone interview or an in-person interview. Types of interviews may be with the principal and/or assistant principal, a committee, a team of teachers, counselors and other certified staff in addition to the building principal.
After the successful candidate has been selected, a recommendation will be sent to the Human Resources Department. The finalist, when chosen, will receive an offer from the Human Resources and a recommendation will be taken to the Board of Education for approval. Unsuccessful candidates who interview in our process will be contacted to let them know that the position has been filled.
