Day in and day out, it takes the coordinated efforts of thousands of employees to ensure Jordan School District remains a safe, inviting place to teach students.      Great teachers, administrators and support personnel make the difference. Knowing this, Jordan District works aggressively to attract and retain the highest quality staff and ensure that all classrooms are superior environments for learning.      With nearly 9,000 dedicated full- and part-time employees, Jordan District is the sixth largest employer in Utah. We work together each day to make sure that students are transported to school, given safe and well-maintained classrooms in which to learn, fed when they’re hungry, and taught important lessons to challenge their minds and sustain learning throughout life.
