What do districts require from substitute teachers?

Each district sets its own bar. Many accept a high school diploma; others ask for some college, and several pay a higher daily rate for 60 or more college hours, a degree, or a teaching certificate. Every district runs a background check and fingerprinting.

What is the difference between day-to-day and long-term substitutes?

Day-to-day substitutes cover single absences and choose which days they work. Long-term substitutes hold one classroom for weeks or a semester, usually at a higher daily rate.

Open a role and apply on the district’s own application. Many districts add new substitutes before each semester and start with an orientation.
