General Description

This full- time position reports directly to the Plant Manager.

The Maintenance Technician will meet all qualifications and behavior standards as set by the Laredo, Diocesan Catholic

School Office and as stated in our Faculty/Staff Handbook and our Salesian Educator Profile. It is primarily the witness

and the behavior of staff that give the distinctive character to Catholic schools. While an employee must be

knowledgeable and qualified in his/her field, they must also demonstrate an understanding of what goes into the mission

of Salesian education. It is the chief desire of the Church that all of us consider their lived-faith and their Christian life-

style just as important as their professional credentials.

In accordance with the Salesian, dynamic force of educational love, we are urged to reflect on the quality of our presence

and of what we offer, following the example of Mary, becoming a presence that collaborates with the Holy Spirit to help

Christ grow in the hearts of the young people and one another.
