Substitute Employment & Information

Applicants interested in substitute employment with our District must complete an online application via EdJoin. Substitute Teacher and Classified Substitute applications are accepted for specific subjects/classifications subject to District needs.

Applications are screened and references are verified before the start of the hiring process. Applicants must provide official proof of required education, credentials, licenses or certificates. As a condition of employment, prospective substitute employees will be required to pass a background check from the Department of Justice, at their expense, and provide verification of a current negative tuberculosis test; eligibility for some substitute assignments may require additional testing, qualifications, or clearance.

Our District uses an automated system (Frontline) for our substitute employees to maintain their profile and manage their assignments, for contract employees to submit substitute requests, and for the Human Resources Department to oversee the search, decline, and accept process of substitute assignments.

Substitute employees must adhere to District rules, policies, and regulations.

Substitute employees are hired on as-needed basis; they are not guaranteed a frequency of assignments or continued employment. Our District will not maintain employment if the substitute employee is seldom or never available to accept assignments.
