Dalton Public Schools To Hold Teacher Recruitment Fair March 7

  • Tuesday, February 18, 2020

Dalton Public Schools is hosting a Teacher Recruitment Fair on Saturday, March 7, from 9:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m., at Dalton Middle School, 1250 Cross Plains Tr. in Dalton. The district hopes to hire teachers to fill the expected vacancies for the 2020-2021 school year.

Interested applicants in all academic and vocational technical areas from prekindergarten through grade 12 are encouraged to attend. The district is specifically looking for individuals with certification in mathematics, science, foreign language and special education. 

District and school administrators will be on hand to meet and interview potential candidates.   

“Dalton Public Schools is a special place to work,” said Superintendent Tim Scott. “We offer a diverse workplace with 1 to 1 technology for students in grades 3 through 12. We also believe in supporting teachers with academic coaches, professional learning, instructional technology coaches and competitive pay and benefits. Every year we hear teachers who come to Dalton Public Schools tell us that our district is a special place to work and learn.”

“On average, Dalton Public Schools will hire about 75 certified staff members,” said Mendy Woods, chief of human resources for the district.  “We are looking for those special individuals who are seeking a purpose not just a position. We hope that hosting our own teacher recruitment fair will allow us to reach a broad array of candidates who are interested in becoming a part of the Dalton Difference.”
