Substituting for the Districts
-
Once you submit the substitute registration packet, or your re-registration documents, you will receive an email verifying your registration on the countywide substitute list.
The District Pay Rates and Contact/Registration Information sheet includes contact information, should you have any questions, and the districts' requirements. The next step is to connect with the districts you wish to sub for in the current school year.
Please note: the districts cannot call you to sub unless they have received the required paperwork to activate you in their specific system. You must follow their directions (right-hand column of the District Pay Rates and Contact/Registration sheet).
