Henry County schools looking to hire more teachers with annual job fair

BASSETT, VA – Henry County Public Schools is looking to hire more teachers with their 6th annual job fair.

The school district has about 8 open positions, but that number could go up after the retirement and relocation of teachers.

Henry County hires an average of 50 teachers each year.

“Especially if you are in the area of school counseling or special education, we would love to see you on Saturday morning,” said Monica Hatchett, HCPS director of communications and organizational learning.

Hatchett said preregistration online is encouraged and that as of Wednesday, over 40 people had done so.

“You are encouraged to bring your resume, of course, and to dress professionally to be prepared for interviews on site, so you can get all of that done, all in one day,” Hatchett stated.

The job fair will be held at Bassett High School, located at 85 Riverside Drive in Bassett, from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on Saturday.

If you can't make it to the job fair, you can apply online.
