Summary
Superintendent Mbuenga and Chief of HR Tammy Harley McGee said the Buffalo City School District is hiring across instructional and civil-service roles, encouraged residents to apply via the district careers webpage, and noted some positions require state certification or Buffalo residency.
Superintendent Mbuenga of the Buffalo City School District and Chief of HR Tammy Harley McGee outlined hiring needs across the district and urged residents to consider jobs beyond classroom teaching.
“HR is the engine of our school district,” Chief Harley McGee said, describing openings for clerical staff, administrative staff, laborers, tradespeople and bus aides as part of the district workforce.
The officials said the district employs more than 7,000 people in roles ranging from principals to maintenance workers. McGee acknowledged the district “struggles finding people” for some civil-service positions because many residents assume school hiring focuses only on teachers and principals.
Applicants should visit the district’s careers page at buffalopublicschools.org/careers to view and apply for open positions, McGee said. She provided the website as the central place to review job listings and application instructions.
McGee explained that instructional hires generally require New York State teaching certification, while some civil-service roles carry specific requirements. She said, for example, that bus aides must be City of Buffalo residents and will need to provide proof of residency.
Superintendent Mbuenga thanked McGee for the overview and urged viewers to consider careers in education, adding a closing request that the public follow Buffalo Public Schools on Facebook and Instagram for further updates.
The remarks were presented as informational outreach about hiring; no formal actions or votes were recorded during the session.
