| Q: |
I am interested
in becoming a substitute teacher for
District 131. What is the procedure? |
| A: |
The
procedure for becoming a substitute
teacher is simple. You would
complete a substitute packet obtained
from Human Resources at the
District office located at
417 Fifth Street, Aurora, IL 60505.
Once completed, return the
packet along with 2 forms of
ID, a copy of your certificate
registered in Kane County and
a current TB test (within 1
year). We also require all
employees of District 131 to
complete a fingerprint background
check. This is done at
the Regional Office of Education.
Please
be advised, the Regional
Office will not fingerprint
anyone without a signed fingerprint
authorization form and a pre-arranged appointment.
We do have an online application
process, but unfortunately,
at this time you can not
apply for substitute teaching
through our online website. |
