Application Procedures:
Application materials may be submitted at any time; however, to be considered for open positions, you must express your interest by identifying the specific job title and number in a letter of application. As positions open, they will be advertised with college and university placement bureaus, in the local newspaper and on our district web site. Applications remain in active status through December of each year. If for any reason your employment status, address or phone number change, please submit notification of that change in writing to the Human Resources Department.

Please read the Frequently Asked Questions page for answers to general application questions.

The following materials are required in addition to the appropriate application forms:

  1. Letter of application and résumé. (Include specific job number.) Please address letters to Nora Klewiada, Executive Director of Human Resources.
  2. College placement file. Contact your college or university placement office to send your Confidential Placement File to our Human Resources Department. (Your Placement File is a confidential file that contains personal data, supplemental candidate information, summary of coursework/workshops, transcripts, evaluations, and letters of recommendation.) If you do not have a placement file, submit three (3) letters of recommendation.
  3. Transcripts (official or unofficial) for each college and/or university you have attended.
  4. A copy of your Washington State teaching certificate(s) or permit.

Substitute Openings
If you also wish to be considered for substitute teaching, check the box on the first page of the application indicating that you are interested in substitute teaching. Substitute applications are reviewed as needed and those applicants whose qualifications and experience best meet the District's needs will be notified that they have been selected for the substitute list and will be scheduled for an orientation session. Please understand that having a completed substitute application on file does not guarantee selection for the substitute list.
