At the Lansing School District, we champion diversity, equity, and inclusion. We offer equal opportunities to all qualified applicants, irrespective of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, or sexual orientation.
We value diverse perspectives, fostering a rich environment for both professional growth and student experiences. As an equal opportunity employer, we invite all passionate individuals dedicated to educational excellence to apply for our positions.
Complete the attached online application at your earliest convenience. A member of our team will be in contact with you about setting up interviews within two weeks of the posting’s closing if you are selected. If you are interested in multiple positions that are in the same department (i.e. multiple teaching positions), you only need to apply to one posting, as we consider all of our incoming external candidates for all the roles for which they are potentially qualified. If you'd like, you can indicate in the final question other roles for which you might be interested.
If you are an internal candidate, please apply with your SSO email address (i.e. smithj0601@lansingschools.net instead of john.smith@lansingschools.net). Also, while a resume will help your candidacy as an internal candidate, you do not need to submit one. The application will still require one though, so submit a blank document instead.
Again, we are incredibly grateful that you are interested in joining our mission-driven team, and we can't wait to meet you!
