Typically, we only consider such requests when they offer opportunities for our existing employees, such as Educational Assistants seeking licensure, or when they present a chance for us to develop relationships with individuals pursuing hard-to-fill positions like Special Education or Advanced Mathematics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&#8217;re approached with any inquiries, please direct them to Ryan Kelling to continue the conversation.
