December grads, polish up that résumé.

DeKalb County Schools is hosting a job fair Dec. 7 from 3:30 to 6 p.m. at DeKalb Early College Academy in Stone Mountain.

District officials are hoping to recruit future educators from colleges and universities in metro Atlanta.

Last year, nearly 800 teachers left the school district. The number is still lower than recent years, which saw about 900 teachers depart each year.
