To effectively support this student body, the district utilizes a comprehensive professional workforce totaling nearly 409 full-time equivalent personnel. This instructional and operational framework is grounded by approximately 238 full-time equivalent teachers, four instructional aides, and over 166 support staff members, ensuring dedicated guidance, lower effective student-to-teacher interactions, and broad counseling and administrative services.
