The Department of Human Resources is seeking teachers who are interested in new endorsements and staff who are interested in becoming teachers. We are preparing to launch two pilot programs, one focused on endorsement in Special Education or English as a Second Language, and another focused on teacher prep. Our programs will include access to high-quality instruction, paid coursework, and highly sought-after employment opportunities. We will also provide short- and long-term support to ensure successful transition into available positions. We invite all interested staff to complete our Teacher Preparation Cohort Interest Form by Sunday, October 30.

It is our desire to bring the best, brightest, and most diverse teaching staff to Albemarle County Public Schools. Human Resources is seeking staff who are interested in expanding their teaching toolkit and reaching students in a more impactful way. We are looking for:

  • Current licensed instructional staff who are interested in earning an additional endorsement in Special Education or ESL;
  • Staff who are not currently licensed, but understand the incredible importance of teachers in the lives of students and want to become a classroom teacher;
  • Staff with bachelor’s degrees who are interested in becoming Special Education or ESL teachers; and
  • Teaching Assistants who aspire to become classroom teachers.

If you would like to learn more about this opportunity, please take a few moments to complete our Teacher Preparation Cohort Interest Form by October 30. In response, we will reach out to all interested staff with details about our upcoming information sessions, in which we will more clearly outline these opportunities and the cohort process.

Thank you for all you do, and we look forward to meeting with you!
