PAUSD is Looking for Substitute Teachers
Substitutes teachers are an important part of the school system and help keep a school running smoothly on days when teachers are out for professional development, illness, or personal necessity. Parents who do not need a long term position and have the flexibility and support to cover unfilled absences may find substituting very rewarding. Staff in the PAUSD Human Resources office would be happy to assist anyone interested in trying this work. For more information on becoming a substitute in PAUSD, please go to
