The Sooke School District (SD62) is hiring some additional support staff in this 2020-2021 academic year during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The posted positions include bus drivers, crossing guards, custodial on-call, education assistants on-call (temporary), and noon-hour supervision assistants on-call.
Funds for these positions (as well as teachers being hired) are coming in whole or in part from the influx of federal funds toward COVID-19 health and safety protocols in schools. Each school district in BC received a portion of the $242 million grant based on student population numbers.
The SD62 Careers page has more information about the current postings.
The next SD62 public board meeting is tomorrow night, October 27, 2020 at 7 pm online.
