Requirements / Qualifications

Hello Prospective Candidate, Welcome to PSD! Please read our Equity Policy for a deeper understanding of the Pacifica School District's beliefs : The Governing Board believes that the diversity that exists among the district's community of students, staff, parents / guardians, and community members is integral to the district's vision, mission, and goals.

Addressing the needs of the most marginalized learners requires recognition of the inherent value of diversity and acknowledgement that educational excellence requires a commitment to equity in the opportunities provided to students and the resulting outcomes.

In order to eradicate institutional bias of any kind, including implicit or unintentional biases and prejudices that affect student achievement, and to eliminate disparities in educational outcomes for students from historically underserved and underrepresented populations, the district shall proactively identify class and cultural biases as well as practices, policies, and institutional barriers that negatively influence student learning, perpetuate achievement gaps, and impede equal access to opportunities for all students.

The Board shall make decisions with a deliberate awareness of impediments to learning faced by students of color, LGBTQ students and / or diverse cultural, linguistic, or socio-economic backgrounds.

To ensure that equity is the intentional result of district decisions, the Board shall consider whether its decisions address the needs of students from racial, ethnic, and indigent communities and remedy the inequities that such communities experienced in the context of a history of exclusion, discrimination, and segregation.

Board decisions shall not rely on biased or stereotypical assumptions about any particular group of students. (Board Policy 0415 : Equity - Original Adopted Date : 08 / 05 / 2020 Last Reviewed Date : 08 / 05 / 2020)

Documents Required for Consideration : Completed online application

  • Valid Clear Administrative Services Teaching Credential
