Substitute Teacher

MISD Programs are designed to improve each student’s ability to function independently. We are a regionally educational service agency serving the public, parochial and charter schools within Macomb County.

Substitute teachers are vital to the daily operation and efficiency of all school programs. The opportunities for assignments are based on absences of regular employees to bridge the gap with their willingness, efficiency and adaptability.

A valid or expired teaching certificate, or completion of 60 (sixty) semester hours of satisfactory (2.0 minimum GPA or grade “C” or better) combined from one of more regionally accredited two- or four-year colleges or universities for a “Daily Substitute Permit”. This permit is used for Intermittent daily substitute assignments when a teacher is temporarily unavailable.  This permit is also limited to a single teaching assignment to no more than 90-calendar days.
2. Experience teaching students with special needs preferred.

4. Patience in instruction and the ability to respond appropriately to challenging behavior.
