Refer SPED Teachers to DSST

We hope you all are well during these times, and while things may be changing in the world around us, one thing is still the same… DSST is still hiring!  While we have been extremely successful in filling most of our core roles already for next year, the one content we are still searching for candidates is in Special Education.  We know from experience that one of the best sources for new team members is YOU, so we are reaching out today to ask for your help in recruiting some amazing licensed Special Education Teachers for our students for the 20-21 school year. 

Congratulations Project: Create Winners!

Join Us in Celebrating the Class of 2020

We wish we were counting down the days until Senior Signing Day, originally scheduled for April 29, 2020, but instead we’re busy coming up with alternate ways to celebrate the amazing Class of 2020 amidst this global pandemic. Our Seniors have all worked so hard to get to this point and deserve to be celebrated for their collective accomplishments.

Employee Benefits Resources for COVID-19

• Adding coverage: If you or a member of your immediate family loses insurance coverage you are qualified to join DSST’s plans (click here to view details on qualifying life events). Team members can follow this guide to initiate a “qualifying life event” in the Workday benefits app. You will be required to submit proof of loss of coverage (a letter from the company/provider stating the date you lost coverage is sufficient) and complete your benefits enrollment within 30 days after the last day of coverage for you/your family member. Please reach out to your campus dedicated HR representative or humanresources@scienceandtech.org if you need support.

• FSA: if an impact of COVID-19 has caused you to need to change your FSA contributions moving forward you can submit a request in Workday for a qualifying life event (see guides above):

1. For example: if your daycare is closed due to COVID-19 therefore you would like to change your FSA contributions moving forward. Note: you will need to submit documentation for your life event to be approved such as a letter/documentation that the daycare is closed.

2. Medical Resources:
