General Application

High School Diploma, or GED required.

**Must be at least 20 years of age.**

Completion of an online application places your name on a list for the principals at each school. Once you completed the application, go to the school and the secretary will give you a blue form that has been signed off by the principal.

THIS IS THE ONLY WAY YOU CAN BE FINGERPRINTED.

You must bring the blue form to Central Office to be processed (Tuesdays and Thursdays from 1:00 p.m to 3:00 p.m.). At this time you will need to supply a copy of your social security card and valid driver's license, or state issued I.D., along with $50.00 exact cash. Once your background has come back with no hits, your name will be placed on the active list of substitutes for the district.

Substitute teaching is not a full time job. It is on an on-call basis only, thus, you are not guaranteed any specific number of days of employment. Payment of background processing fees does not guarantee you will work.

Professional Dress is Required!

Jeans, T-shirts, Wind suits, Work-out leggings, Jogging pants, flip flops and other casual clothing are not considered professional or appropriate, and are not allowed per our district dress code. Dress at least as professionally as your permanent teacher counterpart.
