DSST Public Schools recognizes that one of the best sources for new team members is referrals from current team members. Last school year, 50% of new hires came from referrals from current team members, community members, students, and families!
To show our appreciation for referrals and the talent they bring to our network, DSST has created the following referral incentive system:
Referral Bonuses are paid for every referral hired and employed at DSST Public Schools for at least 60 days. Bonuses for Hiring Season Referrals are paid in October 2019. Mid-Year and Home Office referral bonuses are paid on the next paycheck following 60 days of employment.
| Type of Referral | Bonus Amount |
|
Mid-Year (hired to fill vacancies between 1st and last day of school) |
$700 |
|
Hiring Season (hired to fill 2019-2020 school year roles) |
$500 |
|
Home Office (hired to fill home office vacancies anytime during the year) |
$350 |
|
Hard to fill postitions (Talent Team & School Directors will evaluate needs throughout hiring season) |
Bonus differential TBD based on need |
What is a referral? (When in Doubt– Refer!)

How do I get recognized for referring someone to DSST? (one of the following conditions must be met)

Anyone can refer a future team member to DSST Public Schools!
Important Details:

There is no limit to the number of referral bonuses that an individual may accumulate
If there is a discrepancy (i .e. - more than one person refers the candidate), we will ask the candidate who referred them (if the candidate names multiple individuals, the bonus will be split evenly)
Referred candidates cannot be current employees of our network including our pipeline programs or prior employees of our network (i.e. student teachers, apprentice teachers, current coaches/elective teachers)
The referral program does NOT apply to temporary positions or positions paid via stipend
