MANITOWOC, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) — The Manitowoc Public School District says it increased its daily pay for substitute teachers to encourage more community members to give it a try.
The district says it’s experiencing a shortage of substitute teachers.
Any person who has an associate degree or a bachelor degree in any field can serve as a substitute teacher. Substitutes can pick and choose how many hours or days they want to serve. The school district is also interested in hiring full-time substitute teachers.
The district’s daily pay rate for subs was increased to a range of $180 to $250, depending on the person’s level of education. Someone with an associate or bachelor’s degree in any field will earn $180 per day. If that person works more than four consecutive days, the daily rate rises to $200. A full-time substitute teacher earns $225 per day.
Certified and retired teachers also can step up to serve as subs. The district’s daily pay rates for state-certified teachers and retired state-certified teachers are now $225 and $250 per day, respectively.
“The schedule is very flexible, and people can choose as few or as many hours as they want,” said Mike Nault, MPSD Director of Human Resources. “Our pay is very competitive and it is a rewarding experience. You get to help students in your community as they work through the lesson plans their teacher left behind for you.”
Anyone interested can email their resume to kroghk@mpsd.school or drop it off in person at the district office, 2902 Lindbergh Dr. in Manitowoc. For questions, call (920) 686-4789.
