My Reason
- Retired in 2023, but missing contact with students. Part-time substitute teaching is the perfect position for me, as it allows me to choose my own schedule and have contact with great students and staff at nearby schools. I have been married for 30 years. When I'm not working as a sub, my days are filled with tending to my flock of chickens, two dogs, two cats, and my husband at our home. I am ready to help you fill your substitute needs!
