Human resources report: drive‑a‑bus campaign yields driver applicants; district expects to be fully staffed before school year
Summary
HR presented summer recruitment results, including a recruitment fair and 'drive‑a‑bus' event that produced multiple bus‑driver applicants and strong teacher applicant pools; the HR director said the district aims to be fully staffed before the first day of school.
Dr. Herrera delivered the human resources report and highlighted summer hiring activity to prepare for the upcoming year.
She told trustees the district hosted a support‑staff hiring fair and a drive‑a‑bus event that generated 13 bus‑driver applicants and put 11 drivers into the hiring pipeline. The district also received more than 55 applications in three days after an advertising push and will onboard 19 substitute teachers this month.
"For transportation, they had 13 bus driver applicants that they interviewed last week, and that was just as a result of the drive a bus event," Dr. Herrera said, noting 11 of those applicants are now in the hiring pipeline. She added the district has maintained roughly a 6% teacher turnover rate and expects to be fully staffed before the first day of school, pending no major unforeseen circumstances.
Board members thanked HR for recruitment work and asked for continued monitoring of building‑level turnover and onboarding progress.
