Summary

Superintendent reported that the district's partnership with EduStaff raised teacher substitute fill rates from roughly 73% to about 92% in April; support-professional fill rates also improved but remain lower than teacher rates.

Superintendent told the board that after the district began using a substitute-staffing vendor (referred to in the meeting as EduStaff), teacher substitute fill rates rose substantially and the district's employees reported improved ability to take leave.

The superintendent provided the following figures: daily teacher substitute fill rates now range between 85% and 99%; for April the teacher fill rate was 92%, compared with about 73% in the prior year. Support-professional fill rates were reported to be about 57% in the current period, up from the low-20s range the previous year. The superintendent said the district receives daily, weekly and monthly reports from the vendor and that HR and district leaders have walked the campuses to evaluate needs.

The superintendent expressed appreciation for HR and said the district expects continued improved fill rates moving forward. No formal action was taken at the study session; the item was an informational update to the board.
