Jones Gives an Update on ‘Fast-Track’ for Substitute Teachers

At the SCSD#1 School Board of Trustees work session on Nov. 7, Superintendent Jeff Jones discussed finding ways to fast track the training for substitute teachers to fill in the gaps when a teacher or other school employee is ill or cannot be at work for whatever reason.

At the Dec. 19 Board Meeting, Superintendent Jeff Jones gave an update about how the ‘fast track’ for substitutes is working at SCSD#1.

He said that there has been a lot of interest, but he would ‘absolutely’ like for people to continue to reach out to him about being substitutes.

He talked about how the ‘fast-track’ works.

“We want to encourage people to reach out and get involved and help to fill a need in our school system.” Jones said. He presented the board with a hand-out showing how well the fast-track is working.
