Staff Report
Mr. Lewis shared that we continue to update our tracking document, which helps us monitor our recruiting process. This tracks when a position is posted, how many applicants we receive, when we make an offer and when the new employee starts. We have also continued our quarterly Leadership Book Club series for our coordinators, managers and directors this. The first quarter book was Start With Why by Simon Sinek; the current book is The Energy Bus by Jon Gordon. We have also received a Public Records Request from a law firm, asking for records of every teacher employed. The types of records include employment contracts, lists of teacher’s names and title, detail on each teacher’s years of service, and a few other documents. We are working with our legal counsel to respond and comply with the request.
Mr. Vargas asked how we promote our positions, EdJoin, Indeed, etc. Mr. Lewis shared that we use Bamboo HR, our HRIS system, which pushes the openings on Indeed and several other job boards. We also post opportunities to EdJoin.
Mr. Vargas also asked who our law firm was that we are working with for the PRA. Mr. Lewis mentioned we are working closely with YMC on this matter.
