Support Kyrene kids and make a difference in your community

A man standing in front of a brick building.

“The reason I do this is to pay it forward; to try to make a difference. I know teachers, staff and students need support and in addition to that, personal development. I’ve grown a lot in my life, and I want to continue to do that and be part of something and contribute to society.” - Tod Taylor

Frequently Asked Questions

Completed applications are being reviewed by Talent Management on a daily basis. Thank you for your patience as we work through the large number of substitute applicants that are currently in progress to transition to In House Substitute Services.

Talent Management will contact you via the email address you provided in your application, if you are selected to move forward in the hiring process. You will then be directed to complete and electronically submit required hiring documents that will be linked in the email notification you receive.

Do subs contribute to ASRS?

Do District Subs qualify for benefits?

If I recently retired with ASRS, does it matter how many hours I substitute?

Do Substitutes accrue "sick" time? How do I use it?

Yes. As indicated in the Substitute Handbook, Substitutes will accrue “Accrued Compensatory Absences” (ACA) at the defined hourly rate of .0333. Substitutes may earn up to 40 hours of Prop 206 ACA time for the year. Pursuant to Prop 206, ACA time does not carry over in excess of 40 hours per year. ACA may only be utilized in accordance with the appropriate use language included in the Substitute Handbook.

A substitute must have already accepted an assignment and have a qualifying reason to use ACA. (See the Substitute Handbook for appropriate use language.) Substitutes would need to contact the District Substitute Coordinator immediately at 480-5411301, and then enter the absence in both the Absence Management System as well as the TCP time clock system.
