Our Collective Commitments:
Employee Equity - Remove barriers in hiring and beyond
Employee Experience - Provide relational services first, transactional second
Employee Development - Nurture a culture of “grow here, stay here”
Employee Wellness - Provide preventative and responsive support services
Our district's innovative Grow Your Own (GYO) strategy is to recruit, develop, and retain educators who are connected to our community and share lived experiences with the students we serve. Vibrant partnerships empower GYO participants through college scholarships, localized support and resources, and immediate practice in our schools.
Teeming with talent, Fayette County Public Schools is tapping the students and employees we need to build a workforce that truly represents Lexington!
GYO creates pathways to a diversified workforce, stronger schools, and a connected community.
The Office of Human Resources offers a comprehensive array of wellness services for all permanent employees. We promote preventative wellness initiatives and provide rapid response for employees facing emotional or mental health challenges.
