These positions offer great flexibility and an opportunity to be involved with meaningful work within our fantastic learning environment.  

Our substitute teachers report very high work satisfaction in their roles and add an important dimension to our organization.  The daily pay rate for substitute teachers is now $120 per day.  

Active substitute teachers can work up to four to five days per week consistently, or have more flexibility and work just two or three times per month.  The district has a flexible smartphone app to let substitute teachers control their schedule and seek jobs in advance of the day to be worked.  Gone are the days of a 4 AM call in the morning asking if a substitute can fill a position.

 For the job description and qualifications please see the linked job description.
