Stanton County board authorizes external recruitment through Hire Fox, outlines hiring priorities
Summary
The board voted to engage Hire Fox to source teacher candidates and discussed a district hiring priority sequence: local U.S. degree holders first, then candidates from the Philippines, then Elevate candidates.
During the March 12 meeting, Superintendent Trenton Horn reviewed recruitment options and discussed procedures related to H‑1B hiring. After discussion, the board voted unanimously to engage Hire Fox to identify candidates.
Board members outlined a hiring priority the minutes record as: employees in the United States with degrees first, candidates from the Philippines second, and Elevate third. Chantry made the motion to use Hire Fox; Bobbie Ehrlich seconded and the motion passed 6‑0.
The board asked Human Resources to engage Hire Fox and report back on the candidate pool. No formal H‑1B application was approved at the meeting; the superintendent explained the H‑1B steps Kansas schools follow as background to recruitment options.
