An awesome benefit of working at a school is that you have the same schedule as your child! In Hazelwood, we specifically need teachers and paraprofessionals. We have openings in middle schools and elementary schools from the West side of the district to the East. We have open opportunities to work with students in a variety of classrooms.
Please also share this information with friends and family looking for a collaborative, equitable, and committed work culture, outstanding benefits, and competitive salaries.

SSD staff at Arrowpoint, Grannemann, Keeven and Twillman are making great things happen! The buildings look amazing and the classrooms are wonderful and ready for learning! We have excited educators that are ready to do what is best for students!
