Substitute Teacher

Join our team! Substitute teachers are an integral part of Charleston R-I Schools! We value their service, as they contribute to student achievement through their commitment to quality education.

Charleston R-I needs talented individuals to work with our students. We offer flexible hours, a supportive working environment, and competitive wages.

The daily rates for substitute teachers are $125.00 a day for short-term and $197.25 a day for long-term.

Requirements

All substitutes are required to have a Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) issued substitute teaching certificate. If you do not already have this certificate, we will help guide you through the process.

A Substitute Certificate requires 36 semester hours of credit from a regionally accredited college or university. Verification of these hours must be provided with an original transcript to DESE from each institution the applicant has attended.

• Approved Missouri Colleges and Universities

If you do not have 36 semester college hours, a Substitute Certificate may also be granted to an individual who has successfully completed a minimum of twenty (20) clock hours of department-approved substitute teacher training. Training is now available at the links below. Technical assistance for any issues or questions regarding the online training is provided by Frontline;
