DEARBORN — Dearborn Public Schools is looking to hire more than 100 teaching and non-teaching staff for the upcoming school year.
Job openings include more than 20 openings each for paraprofessionals (classroom aides), food service workers and custodial staff. Other job listings include bus drivers, child care providers, noon hour supervisors, secretaries and receptionists. In skilled trades, we are looking for carpenters, plumbers and electricians.
The district also needs social responsibility room coordinators and community liaisons, preferably who speak Arabic.
Jobs range from full-time with full health benefits and retirement to just a few hours only on school days, with employment options in between.
The district also needs teachers ranging from preschool to high school level. The district is looking to fill about 25 teaching positions. Starting pay for new teachers is the highest in Wayne County, and DPS offers competitive salaries for teachers with experience.

“As a district, we are always excited for the start of the new school year,” said Maysam Alie-Bazzi, executive director of Staff and Student Services. “But it also means hiring lots of new staff to help us prepare for the return of students to our buildings. Hopefully, some of the people reading this will join us so we can continue to provide our students the best possible services.”
DPS serves about 20,500 students and has 35 buildings holding 37 schools and two special programs.
Every August the district has positions to fill as it gears up for the new school year.
