CHANGING PERCEPTIONS:

As your district seeks to provide an outstanding education to students, don’t overlook the crucial role that substitutes play. They step into unfamiliar settings and bring energy to classrooms of students who are brand new to them.
 
And substitute teaching can be a difficult job that’s often dogged with stereotypes and unfavorable preconceptions — two factors that contribute to substitute shortages and low fill rates.
 

What can you do to help overcome these challenges?

With a holistic approach to substitute management that focuses on treating substitutes like the educators they are, you can build a first-rate substitute program that works better for everyone: students, substitutes, and teachers — and that makes your life easier, as well.
 
Of course, a first-rate substitute program doesn’t happen by accident. It takes work, planning, and a deep understanding of your substitutes themselves. But you don’t have to start from scratch — we’ve put together a free white paper on creating a substitute program that truly makes an impact.
