Registration forms may be available during the posting periods at our district office.

Be sure to read the desired qualifcations and information carefully.  All non-teaching positions require a minimum of a high school diploma/ged. 

If you do not sign-up AND test, you cannot be considered. You will need valid photo id with you as no one may register nor test for you.

Other positions may be offered as needed.

Check the vacancy announcements frequently.  It is the candidate's responsibility to meet deadlines.  We cannot accept late registrations.  Likewise, late arrival for any testing session is NEVER allowed to avoid disturbances to candidates in session.
