Commitment to Diversity & Inclusion

Limestone District School Board is committed to fair and equitable hiring practices that will move us forward in hiring staff who reflect the full diversity and lived experiences within the communities we serve.

The Limestone District School Board is committed to removing systemic barriers not only in recruitment but in retention and promotion as well. The visibility of individuals from underrepresented groups in prominent roles positively influences students and fosters a positive work climate.

We invite and welcome you, through your cover letter or video, to self-identify as someone who has lived experiences as a member of one or more of these groups and who can bring valuable, diverse knowledge and perspective to our District and the students and communities we serve.

Accommodation will be provided to applicants, upon request, to enable equitable participation in the recruitment process.

We thank you for your interest. Only those applicants who have been selected for an interview will be contacted and invited to participate in the interview process.
