This question is about substitute teacher salaries and substitute teacher jobs.
Substitutes get paid between $75 to $130 a day. There are many factors that impact how much a substitute is paid, including the school district's location, the number of consecutive days worked, whether the substitute is licensed and whether they are qualified to work long term.
Example of the daily rate of pay for qualified substitute teachers based on location:
Boston Public Schools, for example, pay $126, with an additional 3% given to those with a Massachusetts Educator License.
Clayton County Public Schools pay a daily rate of $83 for those with a bachelor's degree.
Los Angeles Unified School District earns a daily rate of $173 or $28 per hour for six-hour days.
On top of a standard daily pay rate, substitute teachers who work over ten to 20 consecutive days, varies by state to state and by district to district, earn a higher daily pay rate than the standard rate.
In Boston, for example, the daily pay increases to $140 after ten consecutive days and to $253 after 25 days in a long-term position. In addition, substitutes in Boston who average 20 hours weekly are eligible for health and dental benefits, and those working 60 days or more in a school year are granted membership in the teacher's union.
The National Education Association lists long-term rates across the U.S. to include daily pay of $85 in Delaware, $141 in Oregon, $70 in South Carolina, and up to $75 in Utah. In Los Angeles Unified schools, substitute teachers earn an extended rate of $233 per day.
