Substitute Teachers

Substitute teachers help maintain our students' academic progress by facilitating lesson plans during a teacher's absence. The perspective substitute teacher assumes the responsibilities of the classroom teacher for the school day by maintaining a consistent volume of high quality instruction with accuracy and professionalism. Substitute teachers can customize their work schedules by choosing the number of days, school locations, grade levels and types of schools. Substitute teachers can be available for as many or as few assignments as they want. However, all substitutes must work at least 60 hours each school year. There is no guarantee of work since the nature of substituting is based on the number of daily teacher absences. Generally, individual substitutes teach not only for the flexibility in scheduling but to gain valuable experience in the classroom, as well as the opportunity to network with teachers, administrators and other school staff.

Daily Substitute Teachers are staffed with a partnership with Kelly Education.  Kelly Education staff will be available via phone and/or in-person to assist you with becoming a Kelly Education employee. To get started, you must complete the substitute teacher interest form or call 754-732-3644.  Representatives are available 8:00 am - 5:00 pm EST. Twenty-four (24) hours after you complete the form (or call), a Kelly Education representative will contact you to walk you through the next steps.
