Staffing for Next Year
If you are certain that you are not returning, please complete your resignation/retirement online with Human Resources. We want to be able to hire top quality staff; however, we are unable to submit recommendations or transfers to fill a position if the employee has not officially resigned or retired. I appreciate everyone who has confided in me their future plans as it really helps us to prepare for next year. I know our staff is anxious to know their placements for next year.
