Check-In, Check-Out Upon arrival, check-In at the district office: Sign in! (this is used for payroll – pretty important if you like being paid) Obtain key, class rosters, and computer login (if needed) The “Substitute Book” will be in the teacher’s classroom. Pay for lunch, if desired. Lunches must be pre-purchased at the district office; the lunchroom is not equipped to take payments. If you find yourself a frequent lunch buyer, talk to the business office to obtain your own lunch code, and then you can pre-pay for multiple lunches at one time. At the end of the day: Leave the class roster in the Substitute Book. Leave Substitute Book on teacher’s desk. Lock up and return key to office, then sign out. If you are leaving before the end of the school day, please document the time (new procedure). If your day looks like it will end before the end of the school day, ask a school administrator if you are needed elsewhere. Last Minute Cancellations If you accept a job, but have to make a last-minute cancellation, please call the District office. If you leave a voice-mail message, please leave your name and the teacher’s name.
