Thank you for your interest in the Rochester City School District. The district is an equal opportunity employer. All applications are kept current for three years.

Applying for a position is a 2-step process:

1) Register to receive an Applicant ID Number by filling out an online application.

2) Enter your Applicant ID Number in the space provided in each position of interest. 

Candidates interested in Substitute Teaching must be invited to attend a substitute teacher orientation.  Employment will only occur after the orientation process.  After orientation you will be registered into the actual substitute management system which will be discussed at orientation.  All supplemental documents must be submitted.

Before applying for any positions, you must first obtain an Applicant ID Number.  If you do not have one, please go to the Job Application page and click on "Register Now" to complete an application.  You will then be assigned an Applicant ID Number which will enable you to apply for open positions.  This application process also applies to candidates applying for substitute teaching.  There is no job code that needs to be entered.

You may review documentation added to your electronic application by selecting "My Applications" on the left hand side of the screen.  Files that have been uploaded by the district or colleges may be identified but not accessed.  There may also be notes from the district in this area.

In order to be considered for employment, your application packet must be complete.  In addition to completing the online application, you must upload:

Ø      A copy of your certification.  A letter from your college verifying that all requirements have been completed will place your certification as pending.  Copy of your certification is required for full time employment.

Ø      A copy of any New York State Certified Teacher Exam results which you have received will place you as pending certification.  That will make you eligible to substitute and will verify how far along in the process you are.

Ø      Official college transcripts for completed degrees may be uploaded by the College or an official transcript may be submitted under seal by the college.  Unofficial transcripts may be submitted as informational but will not be accepted in place of official transcripts.

Ø      Three (3) current (within 3 years) letters of references including one from immediate supervisor.

For employment you will also need:
