The School Buzz: D-11 hosting largest hiring fair in district’s history

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KRDO) -- If you’ve ever thought about working in education, D-11 has an event this weekend that could be your chance.

Colorado Springs School District 11 says this weekend's job fair will be the largest hiring event in its history. The district is looking to fill 162 "essential" positions, representing several departments: teachers, paraprofessionals, crossing guards and administrative positions, just to name a few.

The hiring fair runs Saturday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Doherty High School. Spanish-speaking support will also be available.

District 11 says it means more than just accepting a job. It means helping create safe, supportive learning environments where students can thrive. If that sounds like you, give them your resume.
