Comments and Other Information

Please note that your completed online application must include all of the required supplemental documentation. Emailed or Faxed supplemental documents will not be accepted. Incomplete applications will not be considered.

In addition, if you apply and are selected for a permanent position at any point there would be an additional $80 cost (currently) for fingerprinting as a permanent employee (taken out of your first regular paycheck).

The San Diego County Office of Education is an equal opportunity employer.
