Human Resources Overview

The San Leandro Unified School District Human Resources Department is a vital branch of the District’s administration. The mission of the Human Resources Department is to recruit, attract and retain highly qualified certificated and classified employees to implement district programs and provide the best quality services for our students.

San Leandro Unified School District employs three classifications of employees:

• Certificated employees must have a specialized credential (e.g. teacher, counselor, speech therapist, or school principal).
• Classified employees need not have a credential. They are the support staff of the district (e.g. clerical staff, custodians, food services, noon supervisors, para educators, secretaries, maintenance workers).
• Management employees fall into two categories: certificated and classified management. Management personnel who evaluate certificated personnel are required to have an administrative credential.
