Verona has six unfilled crossing guard positions and Township Manager Matt Cavallo said at the Town Council meeting on Monday night that, if they are not filled, the township may need to re-arrange the postings of the existing guards. Cavallo told the Council that Verona is currently doing another review of the guard positions established at the start of the 2018-2019 school year.
The township is looking to fill multiple crossing guard positions at a rate of $15 to $19 per hour for a maximum of 12.5 hours per week.
To be a crossing guard, applicants must be a citizen and resident of New Jersey, in good physical condition and of good moral character; applicants cannot have been convicted of any criminal offense involving “moral turpitude”.
If you are interested in being a crossing guard, you must pick up an employment application from the Verona Police Department Records Bureau, 600 Bloomfield Avenue, 2nd Floor, from Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. until 4 p.m. Applications will not be mailed or emailed.
