Board hears substitute staffing challenges and upcoming hires
Summary
A substitute staffing report noted several substitutes on the list who have not worked, pending letters to them, training cancellations, and an expected new substitute bus driver by December; board discussed retired substitutes and hiring timelines.
A staff member delivering the substitute report told the board the district would “be issuing letters to a few employees…because several have not worked at all yet,” explaining the difficulty of removing substitutes when the district is short-staffed. The coordinator explained a few candidates pulled out during required out-of-county training and one trainee has repeatedly canceled, but a new substitute bus driver is expected to begin in December.
Board members asked about retired substitutes and how many days they are expected to work; staff said retired substitutes are generally given more scheduling latitude but will receive reminders if they are inactive. No personnel action beyond routine hiring processes was taken during this item; staff will continue recruitment and follow up on pending hires.
