Medford has attracted and retained many highly qualified professionals. When interviewing prospective faculty Medford offers many advantages such as:
- Competitive pay scale
- Quality benefits
- Accessible location near Boston
- District Based Licensure program
- Mentoring program
- New schools K-8
- Diverse student population
Medford has made significant affirmative action hires in recent years including Principals and a Language Arts Director. Medford held an Affirmative Action Job Fair as well. However we still need to identify and hire more faculty that is representative of our student population.
We will need to do more outreach. However, recruiting faculty from out of state has not worked well since many leave and return home after a short period.
