The procedures used by the Green Bay Area Public School District to screen and hire new teachers are the following: Step 1.  The applicant must have an up-to-date complete file on record in the Human Resources Office which includes the following materials: Completed application; Current resume; Completed "Teacher Application Supplement"; Transcripts of all college or university coursework; Current State of Wisconsin license or written proof from the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction that you can receive a license for the position being sought; if you will graduate or have graduated recently and do not have a license as yet, a letter from your university stating you have met the requirements for certification is sufficient; Three to five letters of reference from supervisors who have observed you in the classroom; An evaluation of the student teaching experience written by the university student teacher advisor, the supervising teacher, and (if possible) the administrator of the building where the experience was completed.  This applies to candidates with less than five years of experience. Step 2.  No later than when a vacancy occurs, an administrator will score the "Teacher Application Supplement."  If the score received is satisfactory, several administrators will credential screen your completed file. Step 3.  After reviewing the candidate(s) on the basis of Step No. 2, a number of candidates will be notified for a structured interview with one or several administrators.  The main personal and professional characteristics for which the interviewers will be looking are the following: Poise; Oral communication skills; Listening skills; Knowledge of subject area to be taught; Knowledge of child growth and development; Knowledge of instructional  methodologies; Interest in and knowledge of providing instruction for students of all ability levels; Indication of empathy for others, especially children; Intensity of dedication to children; Indication of goal orientation. Step 4.  After a successful interview, you will be asked to meet with an administrator to complete the perceiver assessment.  In addition, we will contact your references and complete a background check. NOTE: In those situations where there are a minimal number of candidates for a vacancy, the District may waive some of the steps listed. Any information gathered at any step of the recruitment, screening and/or selection process as articulated in Step Nos. 1 through 4 which indicates that the candidate does not meet District standards may result in discontinuation of consideration of the candidate.  Candidates will be notified of their status in writing when the District has completed its consideration of a given candidate. Opportunities for reconsideration of any of the criteria references in Step Nos. 2 and 4 above will only be provided at the invitation of the appropriate Assistant Superintendent or Executive Director.   If you have any questions about this process, please contact the Human Resources Office, Room 385, Green Bay Area Public School District, Administrative Offices, 200 S. Broadway St., Green Bay, Wisconsin  54303 or Telephone (920) 448-2065.
