The Human Resources Division determines the job title and the classification of each employee taking into consideration relevant state laws and Nebraska Department of Education regulations.  The descriptions below do not include every position within the District but indicate the general separation of employees into the three categories:

1. Certificated employees include teachers and other educators, as well as school psychologists, school social workers, speech language pathologists and school nurses.  Also included are administrators who perform duties requiring a certificate issued by the Nebraska Commissioner of Education.
2. Classified employee groups include technicians, office professionals, custodians, maintenance employees, nutrition service workers, paraeducators and transportation employees.  Also included are administrators who do not hold certificates issued by the Nebraska Commissioner of Education.
3. Hourly employees include, but are not limited to, summer crew employees, mentors and substitutes for certificated and classified staff.
