Our building administrators are focused on the daily educational needs of students; therefore we ask that candidates do not contact building principals to express interest in a position. The Human Resources Department will manage your application and can provide information regarding the status of your application and any open positions.
Successful candidates will be contacted for interviews. Not all applicants will receive an interview. The recruitment process for Platte County Schools is year-round, but specific staffing needs may not be determined until late spring.
