The challenge
Rocky Mountain Prep faced serious staffing instability during a period of major organizational change:
- Low staff retention and a revolving door of teachers
- 80+ vacancies throughout the school year
- A high-profile CEO search and merger that expanded the network from 4 to 12 campuses
- Staff morale at an all-time low, with people leaving in batches
They communicated these key goals:
- Deliver consistent, trustworthy coverage across all campuses
- Secure buy-in from new network leaders and unify staffing under one reliable partner
Customized approach
The Scoot Denver team implemented a multi-pronged solution:
- Day-to-day coverage: Immediate relief for daily classroom needs
- Long-term assignments: Stability for high-impact roles
- Temp-to-perm pathways: Helping campuses secure permanent hires
- Special Education support: Added SpED TA vertical for specialized needs
- Collaborative pricing: Worked together to balance market competitiveness and educator pay
The results
- Fill rate improvement: From 70% to over 90% after Scoot became the preferred provider
- Network-wide stability: Unified staffing approach across 12 campuses post-merger
- Operational relief: Reduced stress for school leaders during a challenging transition
