Board hears staffing update; speech-language pathologist roles remain open

Newark Central School District Board of Education · August 20, 2025

Summary

District HR reported most positions filled ahead of school opening but said two speech-language pathologist positions — described as hard-to-fill — have been posted since spring and remain vacant; the board is exploring alternative approaches.

District human-resources staff told the board that staffing is largely complete ahead of the school year but that a small number of positions remain open. The HR speaker said the district has "about five positions left" to fill and singled out two vacancies for speech-language pathologists as especially difficult to recruit for despite being posted since the spring.

The HR representative said the district is considering different routes to fill those hard-to-reach roles before opening day. No specific hiring incentives or external funding sources were announced during the report; the speaker indicated ongoing efforts rather than a completed plan.
