Substitute Teachers Needed
The process to become a substitute teacher has been made easier for district parents. Being a substitute in the district is a great way to "be in the know" of the district happenings. You don't have to sub in your child's classroom or grade. Assignments can be chosen the week or day before or even as late as the morning of. Some assignments are half days (mornings or afternoons). If you are interested in learning more you can check the link below or contact any of our district principals. The Middle School is in particular need for substitute teachers, with only a few on sight staff members on any given day to cover absent teachers, it is imperative that the district build it's base of subs. This is not a volunteer position, you get paid!
Please apply online at https://www.cape.k12.me.us/o/cesd/page/job-openings--105 | |
