Substitutes
The Federal No Child Left Behind Legislation has resulted in changes to the requirements for our substitutes.  Current substitute teachers and all prospective substitute teachers please read this attachment - Substitute Teacher Board Policy changes.

Edgecombe County Public Schools maintains a pool of substitutes to ensure continued services to our students in an employee's absence. We have substitutes for teachers, child nutrition, bus drivers and bus monitors. Schools contact substitutes on an as-need basis.

    Substitute Seminar Requirement and Yearly Intent Form
    All substitutes are required to attend the Edgecombe County Public Schools' district sponsored Substitute Seminar before being processed as a substitute teacher or the first scheduled seminar.  Failure to attend will result in removal from the substitute list.  Notification of the Substitute Seminar is posted on our webpage.

    To help maintain our pool of substitutes, a continued employment Intent Form is sent to all substitutes annually. This Intent Form is to determine the substitute's wish to continue service for the next school year. If the form is not returned or the intent form indicates a wish to be removed from the substitute list, employment will end and schools will no longer make contact requesting substitute services. 1) Failure to respond will automatically remove a substitute from the list; 2) A substitute may request to be removed, and there will be a 2 month waiting period for reactivation.

    It is imperative that the Personnel Services Department have your current mailing address.
