Substitute teaching: Fellows are each assigned to a participating school district. This is where they will substitute teach during the semester. Fellows put forth a consistent weekly schedule and are expected to report to their district for subbing each day on their schedule. For instance, if a Fellow selects Mondays and Wednesdays to work in their district, they will be expected every Monday and Wednesday for the full semester. They are paid $115.00/day for this substitute teaching work. Substitute teachers play a vital role in maintaining the continuity of education when regular teachers are absent. They must be adaptable, patient, and capable of managing a classroom effectively. Specific duties may vary, based on the assignment.
Completing professional development: As a member of the program, Fellows are required to take mini courses to build their skills and learn more about the profession.
