Sequim School District seeks substitute employees

SEQUIM — The Sequim School District is seeking substitute teachers, support staff paraeducators, bus drivers and custodians.

Online applications are available on the Sequim School District website at www.sequim.k12.wa.us under the “Employment” tab.

Substitute teachers, or guest teachers, serve in the absence of a regular contracted teacher.

A guest teacher must hold a valid state substitute teaching certificate.

An Emergency Substitute Certificate may be acquired for those who hold bachelor’s degrees and are requested by the school district.

Support staff paraprofessional substitutes serve in the absence of a regular support staff employee.

They are not required to hold certificates, but if they are looking to become hired as a regular employee, they must have an associate degree or have 72 college-level credits.

Substitute custodians perform general housekeeping duties in the absence of the regular custodian.

Substitutes must understand the relevance of a clean and safe environment and its impact on learning, the district said.

Substitute bus drivers transport students and other authorized persons on regular school routes, field trips, extracurricular and special activity trips.

The school district will provide required training to anyone interested in becoming a substitute bus driver.
