The SSPGS has adopted a competency based model for recruiting and staffing,
evaluating, developing, and recognizing supporting services employees in
Montgomery County Public Schools. The seven core competencies are:
1. Commitment to Students
2. Knowledge of Job (category specific)
3. Professionalism
4. Interpersonal
5. Communication
6. Organization
7. Problem Solving
Take time to recognize the incredible staff with whom you work. Use the sample "Connect4" employee recognition certificate to celebrate the contribtutions of staff. Simply edit the Microsoft Word document to include the employee's name and the appropriate school/office to celebrate the contributions of a support professional.
