Longview ISD is hosting its annual 'Career Fest' job fair from 9 a.m. to Noon on April 2 at the East Texas Montessori Prep Academy campus, 400 N. Eastman Rd.

One of the city's largest employers, Longview ISD has posted a steady increase in enrollment over the last few years and is looking to fill approximately 50 positions.

Ms. Shalona McCray, LISD Director of Employee Relations, said the district is seeking certified and highly-qualified teachers in all subjects, including critical need areas like English-Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science, as well as Health Services, Social Studies, Spanish and Reading.

'Interested applicants are invited to share their resume with our various campus principals, with some principals possibly conducting interviews, checking references and offering jobs right on the spot,' she said. 'We are hiring for elementary and secondary teachers, and professional positions across the district.'

As an added bonus, the LISD Community Relations department has a variety of activities and attractions for potential applicants AND their families! There will be local vendors, food trucks, and MORE! Childcare will be available and hosted by LISD Early Childhood staffers.

Ms. McCray invited job seekers to fill out an application online at lisd.org and bring the appropriate materials to the Career Fest on Saturday morning.

'We ask that they have copies of their resume, transcripts, teaching certificates, and three letters of recommendation,' she said. 'But if you're not able to attend the event and are still interested in applying you can contact us via email at ask@lisd.org or call 903-381-2200.'
