If you have made your arrangements for substitute coverage before submitting the request, please indicate this when reporting your absence(s) and note that if you do make your arrangements for substitute coverage - the substitute service IS NOT/WILL NOT be responsible for confirmation of coverage. You will need to verify/confirm the coverage.
****PLEASE NOTE THAT YOU ARE STILL REQUIRED TO CALL OR MAKE THE ONLINE REQUEST EVEN IF YOUR POSITION DOES NOT REQUIRE A SUBSTITUTE.
The call-in system is available 24 hours a day
**IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING MEETINGS/WORKSHOPS, ETC... If you do not personally request a substitute for those you are scheduled to attend, you will not have one. Please do not depend on team leaders or grade-level chairs to request multiple substitutes, as not everyone slated to attend does. I would also ask that you please provide me with the dates, times, and schedules for any already known needs as soon as possible.
Thank you
Brenda
