Are you currently looking for flexible employment that works with you and your family’s schedule? Do you have a recent high school or college graduate interested in education? Maybe you are hoping to make some additional income and work when you want with short-term employment. Licking Heights Local Schools has the perfect opportunity for you!

We are currently looking for substitute teachers across our six buildings at the K-12 level. Short-term substitutes are NOT required to have a college degree. A high school diploma or GED and one-year temporary substitute teaching license from the Ohio Department of Education (ODE) is sufficient. Applicants must be 18 or older. Substitutes are paid $150 per day of work.

Advantages of working as a substitute teacher include:

—Choose when and where you want to work. You select which days you want to substitute, what grade levels, what times, and what subject.

—Tailor your hours to fit your needs. If you have a student in the district, you can build your work schedule around their school schedule.

—Earn money for each day you work. Licking Heights pays substitutes $150 per day!

—Learn more about education. If you are curious about education as a career or considering a career change, subbing in a classroom gives you a real-life example of what a day in the life of a teacher includes.

—Ideal position for those just entering or reentering the workforce. Whether you are new to employment or reentering the workforce after time away, substitute teaching gives you excellent experience and transferable skills like project management, public speaking, adaptability, and leadership.
