Substitute Teaching Information and Hiring Procedures

Substitute applications will be accepted July 2011 through September 30, 2011 for the fall semester.

Substitute applications will be accepted again December 12, 2011 through January 13, 2012 for the spring semester.

If you are not selected for the fall semester, and are still interested in substituting with Carroll County Public Schools, you must reapply for the spring semester in December 2011 or January 2012 as only those applicants will be considered for hire for the spring semester.

All newly hired Substitutes must have a minimum of 30 college credits, verified by official transcripts.

All qualified, interested parties must complete an online application, which can be found through the following link: Substitute Teacher Application only when we are hiring substitutes.  If you do not see the application, we are not hiring at this time.

Candidates will be selected from the pool of applicants and receive an email notifying them of their selection as a Substitute and advising him/her of the Substitute Orientation date, time, and location.  Submitting an application does not guarantee selection as we receive many more applications than we have available positions.  Please do not call for Orientation dates.  That information will be supplied to selected candidates only.

Orientation sessions are required for the automated Substitute Teacher calling system; SubFinder, and mandated procedures and protocol for dealing with:
- Prevention of Sexual Harassment
-Child Abuse/Neglect reporting
-Student/Staff relations
-Preventing Bloodborne Pathogens
-Acceptable Telecommunications
 

During the training, candidates must supply an official transcript showing a minimum of thirty (30) college credit hours and two forms of identification to satisfy the I-9 government form.  Please do not submit transcripts or any other information prior to the Orientation.  There will be an opportunity to secure a time for fingerprinting at a later date.  The fee for fingerprinting will be $20 (cash or check only) due at the time prints are taken.

 

Substitute Registered Nurses

Registered Nurses interested in providing Health Room coverage, please complete the online Substitute Nurse Application. If you are selected to come to an Orientation, you will receive an email with the details.
 
 

Important Substitute Payroll Information

 ********* Pay Checks for Substitutes ********************

 In an effort to reduce costs due to budgetary restrictions, Carroll County Public School's payroll system is now paperless.   This means all employees, including substitutes, will have a computer login to access their payroll information.  
 
The first time you log in to the Employee Access Center to view your pay information MUST be from a school.  After your initial log in, you can then utilize the system from home.  Instructions for both HOME access and WORK access are available below.
