ROCHESTER, N.Y. – With the first day of school two weeks away, the Rochester City School District is looking to fill some remaining open positions.

The district has hosted several job fairs throughout the summer. There’s an upcoming recruitment event on Thursday, Aug. 22 at The Mercantile on Main on East Main Street. It runs from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Forty classroom positions are open, as are jobs in transportation and food service, among other categories. RCSD will train anyone who is interested, according to Chris Miller, chief of human capital.

“(We’re) just trying to be out and present within our community so that we can attract and bring people into the district to support our students,” he said.

The district is also looking for teachers who are fluent in Spanish.
