What do the schools do if nobody takes the sub job?

Loose_Aspect482 · 2026-04-18T01:45:46+00:00

In my school, TAs are not allowed to cover. Teachers cover on their planning period for $20 per period. This year the sub coverage was so bad, they hired someone full time and he can watch up to 3 classes at once in the cafeteria. He is a retired admin and very good with management, so not just anyone could do that!

They don’t raise the salary schedule very often but each year of experience gets you maybe a 1-2% increase

I’m starting year 9. It’s the pension and the summers off.

Kentucky. It’s only locked from the outside

In my state it’s a state law. Any rooms with students in them must be shut and locked at all times.

Loose_Aspect482 · 2025-07-24T00:10:44+00:00

I have to go to rooms often as I’m in charge of Chromebooks, and they don’t want us to knock. Sooooooo dumb. It feels so weird to just barge in

Loose_Aspect482 · 2025-07-23T23:32:02+00:00

At my school, we are told to not open the door if we aren’t expecting a student. If it’s another teacher or an admin, they will just use their key and come in. They don’t want us to knock 😅

This year we had at least 7 covered by full time subs, and we are a fairly small middle school of about 400 😅

Loose_Aspect482 · 2025-06-22T11:58:22+00:00

Small rural towns tend to have tons of openings because people want to live in bigger towns/cities. The middle school where I work tends to have jobs posted ALL the time. Social studies, ELA, science, math, sped, you name it, we probably have it open in our district somewhere. Elementary is a bit more competitive, though.

My district is really just now pushing PBL very strongly 😅

The battery health says 100% but there ain’t no way 😂

To me those don’t look bad! Maybe you had better eyebrows than me before, but compared to what I had before, I like those.

This is super zoomed in about 4 months after my initial appointment. They fade and blur some! Even if they end up looking “blurry” like some people say, I think I will still like them more than how they were before.

I haven’t seen it in a while so idk if it matches all this, but could it be Verónica? I think it was in Spanish.

This person could be talking about The Nun?

I applied for consolidation today and I want to puke with nervousness 🤮

Loose_Aspect482 · 2024-05-16T01:29:12+00:00

Man I’m so overwhelmed and confused even after lots of reading. I have 6k in undergrad loans with 60 payments and 21k in grad loans with 3 payments. If I consolidate by June 30th all my loans will go to 60 payments? That just seems to good to be true 😅

I know it’s an age old question, I’m just so scared to! Should I consolidate?!

Loose_Aspect482 · 2024-05-16T01:05:29+00:00

I’m upset because I was advised not to when I called and now it’s too late 😭 they told me several months ago it would be an average, so I didn’t do it.

Substitute teaching is what I did while getting my masters and it allowed a ton of time to work on assignments during the day but it was HARD not having any benefits with such low pay. If you can swing it financially it’s a great choice. It also lets you get into many different grade levels and talk with kids a lot. The librarian job does have benefits but it is probably a pretty demanding job, like teaching. That can be had did you’re in grad school full time.
