3120.04 - EMPLOYMENT OF SUBSTITUTES

The Board of Education recognizes the need to procure the services of substitutes in order to continue the operation of the schools as a result of the absence of regular personnel.

The District Administrator shall employ substitutes for assignment as services are required to replace temporarily-absent regular staff members and fill new positions. Such assignment of substitutes may be terminated when their services are no longer required.

Substitutes must possess a valid Wisconsin professional certificate and a permit, if substitute teaching in a subject for which s/he is not certified. The District may declare that an emergency exists due to the lack of qualified available substitutes and permit the use of a substitute with a bachelor's degree but not a professional certificate. There must also be verification that a satisfactory background check has been conducted by the Department of Public Instruction or appropriate State agency.

In order to retain well-qualified substitutes for service in this District, the Board will offer competitive compensation at a rate set annually by the Board.

Substitutes will receive in June a letter of reasonable assurance of continued employment.
