    Welcome to Human Resources

    Thank you for your interest in the Cornwall Central School District.  The Human Resources Department is responsible for all facets of personnel for both instructional and non-instructional staff.  There are six bargaining units that represent the approximate 500 Classified and Unclassified staff in Cornwall.  These bargaining units include the Cornwall Central Teachers Association (CCTA), the Cornwall Administrators' Association (CAA), the Cornwall Clerical Workers' Association, CSEA Orange County Local 836-Cafeteria, CSEA Orange County Local 836-Custodial, and the Cornwall Paraprofessional Association. 

    Recognizing the importance of attracting, developing and retaining well-trained and highly qualified professionals, the Department of Human Resources largely focuses on five areas:

    • Recruitment and staffing, 
    • Compensation and benefits, 
    • Onboarding and professional development,
    • Healthy labor and employee relations and, 
    • Organizational development and performance management.  

    The District is presently recruiting for an Assistant Superintendent for Business.  A complete job description and vacancy announcement can be found here.  Qualified candidates should apply directly on OLAS.
