Each district's school improvement contact can help. She has Masters in teaching and received regular salary and benefits. She would go each day to the same school and fill in as needed and assigned. As a result she was very familiar with the staff, teachers, and students and the students knew that when Ms. Miner was teaching they were not going to miss a beat in advancing their education. The same question could be asked regarding substitute teachers.
All substitute pay is without any benefits.
Training will be on familiarization with the Osceola High School facility, faculty, parking, sign-in procedures, lunch procedures, specific student problem direction, different emergency procedures, equipment problems, and communication with classroom teacher. All subs will be provided with a map and tour of the facility. All subs should report to one specific Administrator and Dean. This would help the Administrator assess which substitute teachers are functioning acceptably in the classroom and improve their knowledge of continuing or developing problems facing the substitute teacher. The School Advisory Council will agree to reimburse the fees required by the district for TB tests, fingerprinting, background checks and other expenses incurred in becoming a new substitute teacher.
