Human resources reports 100% teacher fill rate; low turnover and midyear staffing work ahead of contract season
Summary
Human resources staff told the board the district’s teacher fill rate is at 100%, turnover is about 3% and attrition under 1%; HR outlined midyear tasks including recertification, recruitment, transfers and contract preparation in February and March.
The Harris County Board of Education received a human resources update Jan. 7 that summarized staffing metrics and midyear HR activities.
Miss Carlisle reported the district currently shows a 100% teacher fill rate, an approximate 3% turnover rate and attrition under 1%. She described recent new‑hire meetings and said HR is compiling feedback from those sessions for future reference. Carlisle outlined the midyear calendar: January brings recertification and background checks for 112 employees, continued recruitment and position allocation work; February begins contract season and budget coordination; March is the main cycle for professional contracts and personnel coding updates and is coordinated with finance; April focuses on classified employee processing and finalizing staffing plans before school year end.
Carlisle said the department’s goal is to staff every class with a highly qualified teacher and that principals are completing midyear conferencing and progress checks that inform transfers and hires. She said the March contractual cycle is one of three (October, March, July) and that HR and finance collaborate on certification and coding updates.
The report was informational; no personnel actions or policy changes were taken at the meeting.
