Kankakee School District 111

The People Services Department is the heart of Kankakee School District 111’s commitment to our employees. Serving as the central hub for staff resources, our mission is to support, engage, and empower every team member so they can thrive in their roles and, in turn, make a lasting impact on the students and families we serve.

We believe that when we put people first, we create a culture where every educator and staff member feels valued, supported, and inspired to do their best work. From recruitment and onboarding to professional learning, mentorship, retention, and wellness, People Services is dedicated to walking alongside our staff at every stage of their journey.

Our work goes beyond policies and processes—it is about cultivating belonging, celebrating excellence, and ensuring every employee has the resources and opportunities to grow. By prioritizing people, we strengthen the foundation of our district and create the conditions for sustainable success.

At Kankakee School District 111, People Services is not just a department—it is a promise: to make people our priority and to invest in the individuals who make our mission possible.
