Summary

The substitute handbook was updated so permanent employees serving as substitutes (for example, paraprofessionals) will be paid hourly; the board also approved adding a Choices assistant sponsor position with an 8'1% stipend range.

The board approved the 2025-26 substitute handbook containing a notable pay change: permanent employees who serve as substitutes (for example paraprofessionals) will be paid hourly rather than by the previous half- or full-day flat rate. Executive director of finance (S13) recommended the change "so this will allow us to keep track of the number of hours they are working" and recommended a $20-per-hour rate in the document.

Separately, the board approved adding an extra standard-services position to provide an assistant sponsor for the Choices program (to provide opposite-gender representation on out-of-district overnight travel). S13 recommended a stipend range of 8'1% to mirror other assistant sponsor positions; the board approved the addition.
