In order to ensure reliable assistance in the absence of regular noncertificated personnel, the Board of Education will offer competitive compensation to qualified substitutes.

Noncertificated substitutes will be paid on a per diem basis at a rate of pay for the job on which they are substituting as established by the Board.

If a regular employee substitutes in another classification, s/he will be paid according to the rate for the substitute position.

A substitute noncertificated employee who has served for ten (10) or more years as a noncertificated employee in the Springboro Community City School District shall be paid at the rate for step three on the corresponding salary schedule for the position being filled. A year of service for a noncertificated employee shall be defined to be at least 120 days during a given contract year.
