Event Overview

Applicants should bring several copies of resumes, teaching certificate or college letter of anticipated completion. To qualify for the event, applicants must have verifiable credentials.

All applicants are required to present proof of certification or proof of anticipated certification. A certified applicant is an individual who currently holds a standard, provisional or professional Texas Certification or who is certified in another state. If the applicant has completed a university teaching program and will be certified by the start of the 2009-2010 school year, he/she is eligible to attend the open house.

If you are currently accepted in an alternative certification program in the following critical need areas: bilingual, secondary science, secondary math, special education and Spanish, you are also eligible to attend.

Plano ISD has employed approximately 30 percent of its teaching staff from candidates who participate in the recruitment open house. The district continues to attract more applicants each year to this event.

Pre-registration

Pre-registration will end at 5:00 p.m. on February 20. After February 20, applicants will only be able to attend the event as "walk-ins". To register as a walk-in on the day of the event, the applicant should bring copies of his/her teaching certification and/or university letter of completion.

Applicants currently enrolled in an alternative certification program (bilingual, Spanish, special education, secondary science or secondary math only) are requested to bring a copy of their current letter of acceptance in order to be admitted to the open house, and, if possible, to complete an online employment application prior to attending.

Curriculum Demos, Student Performances

The recruitment open house will include interactive demonstrations of Plano ISD's elementary and secondary online curriculum planners and showcases of student artwork and performances celebrating Plano ISD's rich diversity and educational excellence.
