410.1 - Substitute Teachers

The board recognizes the need for substitute teachers.  Substitute teachers will be licensed through the Board of Educational Examiners.

It will be the responsibility of the building principal to maintain a list of substitute teachers who may be called upon to replace regular contract licensed employees.  Individuals whose names do not appear on this list will not be employed as a substitute without specific approval of the superintendent.  It will be the responsibility of the building principal to fill absences with substitute teachers immediately.

Definition:

a.  A substitute teacher serves on a temporary basis in the school district.

Substitute Teachers:

1.  Personnel serving on a substitute basis in the school will possess certification from the State Department of

     Education.  A baccalaureate degree and teaching experience are preferred.

2.  Properly certified substitutes will be paid a per diem rate determined by the superintendent.

3.  On the 11th consecutive school day that a substitute serves in the same assignment, the per diem rate will

      increase to B.A. base without Teacher Supplement Salary (TSS) monies.

NOTE:  All substitute pay rates will be computed and paid to the nearest whole dollar for the daily rate.
