Shining Stars Teacher Recruitment Event
More than 500 applicants from across the Upstate and the nation came to Greenville’s Bi-Lo Center today to apply for teaching positions in Greenville County Schools for the 2013-14 school year. Candidates heard from Superintendent W. Burke Royster as well as representatives from the Greenville Chamber, Visit Greenville SC, Michelin, and other community groups. Approximately 500-600 teaching positions will be needed to open the new school year. The Shining Stars event is hosted each year by Greenville County Schools as a way in which candidates looking for teaching positions have the opportunity to meet Greenville County Schools’ principals and district staff.
