The district anticipates critical shortages in the teaching and administrative ranks over the next five years due to increased student enrollment and the opening of new schools, projected retirements, a competitive job market and competing priorities. Consequently, there is an elevated sense of urgency to invest in human capital. By developing a district-wide culture of continuous learning, where staff is provided the time, resources and support necessary to develop job proficiency and satisfaction, OCPS will engage and retain effective employees.
