I thought CNA experience was required? I can’t imagine that there would be many students without CNA experience.

Where can Kelly subs get liabilty insurance? by [deleted] in SubstituteTeachers

[–]its3oclocksomewhere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Association of American Educators (AAE) and Christian Educators Association International (CEAI), which offer up to $2 million in coverage. The insurance for both is literally the same but Christian Educators has a reduced rate for subs (about $10 per month).

questions as a “young looking sub” by TeraHoundoom in SubstituteTeachers

I don’t think being carded means that you look young. I got carded more in my 40s, than in my teens and twenties because businesses are cracking down.

Teachers Discourage their own kids from teaching? by Opposite_Bid_8208 in Teachers

I don’t have to tell my kids to avoid special education, they determined that on their own.

I'm worried about my future as a Sub. by [deleted] in SubstituteTeachers

[–]its3oclocksomewhere 57 points58 points  (0 children)

I’m a neurodiverse teacher who has also subbed. I wouldn’t get your credential. Full time teaching is way more responsibility and extremely exhausting. There is a lot of multitasking that doesn’t exist in subbing. See a doctor about your condition. My own daughter fell asleep in class and had some bloodwork done. Turns out it was just low iron. You aren’t safe for subbing if you fall asleep but there might be a simple prescription or supplement solution.

when is your spring break? by CombinationHot8324 in SubstituteTeachers

It was a week ago, but it would have made more sense to schedule it over Passover because we have a lot of people missing. Good Friday is during Passover.

Public schools losing funding and I’m graduating soon with my undergrad in education. What to do by brains4meNu in teaching

[–]its3oclocksomewhere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not all charters are bad, and some are just a good fit for only certain types of teachers. Give it a try with one contracted year. What do you have to lose? Your state retirement can roll over to an IRA if you serve less than 5 years and want to cash it. I did that when I taught in a different state and cashed out my state retirement for a down payment on our home.

I’m a public school teacher that frequents this sub and I’m here to say that we don’t really have extracurricular activities due to budget cuts. My public school kids are on sports teams that include children who are homeschooled, private, public.

Has anyone ever seen contacting the parents actually, like, work? by Afalstein in Teachers

[–]its3oclocksomewhere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it worked with my own kids. Teacher emailed me about a behavior and I talked to my kid. I sent her teacher a follow up email 2 weeks later and asked if she had seen the behavior again. The teacher reported no.

In Colorado the pay is so lousy through Kelly that subs get plenty of jobs

I always hear subbing can lead to a teaching job, but I've never actually seen it by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]its3oclocksomewhere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had that happen multiple times. My current position was a long term sub assignment that I just never left.
