The substitute teacher replaces the regular teacher on either a daily or long term basis, and is therefore responsible for the continuation of all learning activities in the classroom. As such, they are expect to understand human growth and development and be knowledgeable about what is to be taught and demonstrate facility in the basic skills of reading, writing and mathematics, or whatever subject area they are assigned. They are expected to effectively communicate with students and establish a positive climate in the classroom in the absence of the regular classroom teacher, and maintain classroom discipline. They are also expected to communicate with the classroom teacher they are replacing, informing them of their progress in the assigned lessons and other issues that occurred in the classroom in the teacher's absence.

Connecticut State Department of Education Certification

This assignment is expected to continue for more than 40 days, and therefore we are seeking a certified candidate. If you are not currently certified in CT, but hold a Bachelor's degree and 12 credits in the content area to be taught, we will apply to the CSDE for Long-Term Substitute Authorization.
