Job description

As of January 1, 2025: In accordance with Education Code section 44939.5, you are required by law to provide a complete list of every school district, county office of education, charter school and/or state special school that you have previously been employed no matter the length of service. Please include any part-time and/or substitution work in addition to any full-time employment positions. Failure to disclose any school district, county office of education, charter school and/or state special school that you have previously been employed may be deemed dishonesty in the hiring process and/or dishonesty following termination. CUHSD will provide a section where certificated job seekers can enter this information.

We currently have Board approval for up to $2,000 per semester for Social Worker interns. Once the budgeted cap has been reached, the District will still support unpaid internships for qualified candidates based on site need and capacity.

For paid internships, the candidate will receive funds at the end of the semester to ensure services were provided throughout.

The process to become a school counseling intern with our District includes:

• Candidates submit an application.
• Pending need, candidates may be contacted by a Human Resources representative or site administrator.
• If a mutual fit between a candidate and CUHSD has been confirmed with the Principal, the Human Resources department will confirm that there is an active Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the candidate's program.
  • If there is an active MOU, the candidate will be sent a packet to get cleared for service as a Social Worker Intern.
  • If there is NOT an active MOU, a Human Resources representative will initiate the process with the candidate's Field Placement Coordinator. This process includes reviewing and confirming terms of the agreement, followed by Board approval, and formally signing the agreement.
• Once the candidate has been cleared, the site administrator lead will be notified and details finalized.
