• Pattonville School District was named to the St. Louis Region Top Workplaces list for 2019. The district was ranked 7th among the Top 20 large employers in the St. Louis area. This is the fifth year in a row Pattonville has earned Top Workplace recognition. Nearly 1,300 metro St. Louis companies were nominated as a Top Workplace in 2019, but only 150 received recognition. Top Workplace honorees are chosen based solely on feedback provided by employees via surveys administered by Energage, an independent national research firm that specializes in organizational health and employee engagement.

• The district currently employs 41 certified teachers of color. This represents

approximately 8.3% of the certified teaching staff. o Since December 26, 2018, seven new certified staff of color have been hired. o Staff of color represent 12.28% of the new certified staff members hired since

December 26, 2018.

• The Human Resource Center works with Pattonville High School to support students interested in pursuing a career in the educational field. Strategies include presenting to and working with high school students involved with Educators Rising at Pattonville High School. Students in the organization participate in job shadowing with Pattonville and Special School District educators to learn more about various teaching roles. The Human Resources Center participated in a student focused career fair at Pattonville High School on November 7, 2019. At the event students learned more about becoming a teacher and other potential employment opportunities in the Pattonviile School District.

• To maximize the recruitment of certified staff of color, the assistant superintendent for human resources can recommend candidates directly to the board of education for some teaching positions. This strategy supports the hiring of candidates in areas that typically have multiple openings such as for elementary teaching.

• We continue to partner with Missouri State University to showcase careers in the field

of education to students of color at our high school. Participating students had the opportunity to participate in a summer academy at Missouri State University during the summer of 2019. They completed ACT preparation courses, met with advisors, met with students majoring in education, met with admission representatives, toured the campus, stayed in the dorms, and toured the city of Springfield.

B. Emphasize recruitment of staff of color.

• High-quality substitute employees continue to be in high demand in all areas. We remain focused on providing a sufficient number of substitute staff to cover absences and vacancies on a day-to-day basis. A monthly substitute forecast regarding known substitute needs is shared with building administrators to encourage staff to avoid planned absences on days when substitute coverage is increased due to district professional development. New substitute orientation sessions are held on a regular basis to prepare substitute employees for district positions. Pattonville School District Policy GCBC-R-1 Sick Leave provides guidance and procedures regarding staff with excessive absences.
