Valley View School District 365U hosting job fair with immediate hiring opportunities

Valley View School Community Unit School District 365U has a new logo and identifying graphics that are part of an updated strategic plan, which will be formally presented to the VVSD Board of Education at its regular meeting on Monday, July 18, 2022

Valley View School District 365U will be hosting a job fair that will include immediate openings for paraprofessionals.

The event will take place from 1 to 3 p.m. Tuesday, July 22, at the Emmie Dunn Administrative Center, 801 W. Normantown Road in Romeoville, and candidates will be able to interview on the spot.

The district said that attendees should come dressed professionally and bring their driver’s license and Social Security card with them. Jobs may be offered the same day to ideal candidates after an interview.

Although the district currently has multiple openings, the job fair is particularly focused on finding paraprofessionals to “support teachers and students in many ways,” including tutoring, and “assisting teachers with managing the classroom and organizing instructional materials,” the district said.

Valley View’s website currently lists 16 paraprofessional openings available at the district.

Most of the positions being sought at the job fair work within the hours of the regular school day, making openings more convenient for parents and others with “school-aged dependents,” the district said.
