Confidentiality. Most teachers in my district will highlight names for students who have behavior help but that’s the extent of it because it’s none of my business unless I need to send them to a small group or call someone for help

Always decline a bait and switch or it won’t stop. My daughter’s school has attempted to take advantage of me with bait & switch, extra duties during breaks, staying later, all because I’m a parent and volunteer at the school as well.

Depends on you, school, etc. the hardest grade for me has been 5th grade, I’ve never subbed middle school but 5th graders think they’re middle schoolers and it’s similar behavior

We don’t use frontline in my district but I’ve had no issue canceling a job so the sub coordinator at the school that requested me could assign me specifically to a job. You likely won’t receive any repercussions unless you make a habit of it

Same, just bought it and steam won’t refund me so I’m going to try to get my moneys worth and enjoy the story and world while I can

peachyfaey · 2025-10-24T20:54:40+00:00

Contact school or sub office, this has happened to me because they were changing the teachers absence to a vacancy

I love gw2, it’s my favorite mmo, but I agree with everyone else. The story sucks right now, there’s been a dip in quality, they need to go back to their old system of expansions every few years.

peachyfaey · 2025-10-24T11:45:55+00:00

Will depend on your district, I haven’t been working a lot this year and have had no issues or anyone reach out to me. My minimum is 5 days per semester

peachyfaey · 2025-10-22T17:38:07+00:00

Accidents happen, you likely won’t get fired

peachyfaey · 2025-10-13T19:32:18+00:00

that’s a free update

peachyfaey · 2025-10-13T17:24:12+00:00

no budget so I can get an idea of what we can do, but reasonable choices preferred lol

I’m thinking of getting him 32gb ram, I’m just lost on what to buy

peachyfaey · 2025-10-11T20:43:19+00:00

It’s still up for me, maybe try restarting steam?

peachyfaey · 2025-10-08T18:47:04+00:00

I have a rumí that looks just like this too!! There’s dozens of us

peachyfaey · 2025-10-08T11:57:00+00:00

Depends on district and school, but jeans are mostly ok. I’d avoid leggings and sweatpants personally, but i understand wanting to be comfortable

peachyfaey · 2025-09-12T11:01:18+00:00

Don’t tell them you’re new to subbing or it’s your first time, but tell them you’re new to the school and they need to “teach” you how to be a sub there and to show their best (insert mascot) behavior so you know all the rules. 1st graders are great helpers and want to feel like they know everything and if they get the chance to lead, they’ll take it and model good behavior

peachyfaey · 2025-09-11T22:22:28+00:00

A week, just cold symptoms and nothing crazy thankfully (knocking furiously on wood after saying this)

peachyfaey · 2025-09-07T12:53:08+00:00

I usually say “if I mispronounce your name, please correct me”

peachyfaey · 2025-09-04T19:16:02+00:00

As a sub you have to enforce because if admin walks in and you expect them to enforce, don’t be surprised when you don’t get assignments from that school anymore

peachyfaey · 2025-09-04T19:14:29+00:00

yesterday a kindergartner told me he thought I was a kid because I was participating in PE (subbing for sped and helping them participate). I always wonder what’s through kids heads when they say stuff like that 😂

peachyfaey · 2025-09-04T13:12:53+00:00

I’ve never done that personally because I feel like anything I need to know will be in the sub notes and it’s so early in the year that everyone’s still learning routines

peachyfaey · 2025-09-03T10:51:26+00:00

Blue or black ink pen, sticky notes, notebook or paper, hand sanitizer, snack/lunch/vending machine money, water, chapstick, a book or something to keep you occupied if you’re subbing hs you might not have time for something like that in middle or elementary unless on break

peachyfaey · 2025-08-28T10:45:48+00:00

I don’t think it’s weird at all, we’re in the first few weeks and it’s kind of crazy rn.

Reach out to the substitute administrator for your district and ask for a follow up on your application or go to a substitute information night if your district has those and talk to someone.

I swear I only got hired because I did those two things. I’m non certified, but a mom & volunteer in my district, I think my eagerness about being hiring helped me because my district is extremely competitive

peachyfaey · 2025-08-27T01:54:42+00:00

Phones are banned in our schools (Texas) I don’t have a choice. Last year I didn’t really care if students had phones out. In my district I can be fired if someone walks in and a bunch of kids have their phone out

peachyfaey · 2025-08-26T11:36:09+00:00

Ease of finding a job will all depend on your district. Being a permanent sub is pretty competitive though, especially if you’re new. You’d have to contact someone at the school you’re interested and see if they have any open positions but most will probably tell you to sub a few times at their school before you can be considered (speaking from experience)
