| Visiting
the Houston Area? The online application
is for use by teachers, administrators, and other professionals
applying for a position. Please call Human Resources at 281-396-2347 to obtain
an application for paraprofessional or auxiliary positions. Or
you can send an email to
Peggy Schulin to obtain an application.
Application Process
Once your application is received in Human Resources, processing
begins. This can take from two to four weeks and includes sending
for references and completing the criminal history check. You will
be notified by Human Resources if you need to schedule a
departmental interview. Due to the high volume of applications, Katy ISD cannot interview all applicants.
Hiring Process
Only offers for employment from Human Resources to an applicant
are valid offers. You will be notified by Human Resources if
you are to receive an offer of employment. Applicants that are not
selected are not notified; however, you may contact Human
Resources (281-396-2347) at any time to find out the status of a position.
Interview Process
Once the application, reference, and supporting documents have
been received and processed, the application will be reviewed. You
will be notified in writing if an interview is required by Human
Resources. Principals will contact you directly for campus
interviews.
In order to make the interview/hiring process as streamlined as
possible, please do not contact principals directly by telephoning
or just "stopping by" his/her office. Principals are very
busy, especially during the spring hiring season; however, as an
optional activity, you may send a principal a written letter of
interest with a resume. A list of addresses is available through
the Katy ISD Web Page.
Timelines
Katy ISD accepts applications twelve months a year. Applications
are processed throughout the year, and hiring takes place throughout
the year. As would be expected, the busiest hiring time is in the
spring for the following school year. Most spring hiring is done
in April, May and June; therefore, applicants interested in being
considered for the fall hiring should turn in an application as
early as January. Teaching contracts usually begin about the first
week of August.
Visiting the Houston Area?
If you are not from the Houston area and are planning a visit here,
please send in your application in advance of your visit. You may
also call Human Resources (281-396-2347) before your visit
to see if someone from Human Resources will be able to
visit with you while you are here. We try to accommodate out-of-area
applicants whenever possible.
