Over 60 Colorado school districts to look for candidates at recruitment fair
Colorado school districts are looking for the next generation of teachers and employees this weekend.
The Colorado Educator Recruitment Fair will be held from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday at Frederick High School, 5690 Tipple Parkway, according to a news release from the Colorado Department of Education.
The fair, hosted by the Colorado Association of School Executives (CASE) and the Colorado Association of School Personnel Administrators (CASPA), is the largest teacher employment fair, with representatives from 61 hiring school districts and three charter schools coming to meet with licensed educator candidates.
The event is open to candidates who hold or are eligible for a Colorado teacher license or alternative licensure for the 2026-27 school year, including people from out of state. Positions include teachers and special service providers such as counselors, psychologists, nurses, social workers, audiologists, occupational therapists, physical therapists, speech-language pathologists and orientation and mobility specialists, according to the release.
Pre-event registration for candidates ended Wednesday. Walk-up registration is $20 during the day of the event.
“Every student deserves a great educator in their classroom,” said Colorado Education Commissioner Susana Córdova in the news release. “Events like the Colorado Educator Recruitment Fair help districts find strong candidates, expand and diversify the workforce, and support positive learning environments in schools across Colorado.”
