Procedures for Paying Substitute Teachers Mileage Reimbursement
Substitute teachers who accept jobs for teachers who travel from school to school or site locations qualify for mileage reimbursement. This is the procedure you should follow for reimbursement:
1. Complete the form specifically designed for subs, AC0041. This form can be found by going to lps.org and typing in "forms" under key words and then accounting, or you can get the form initially from the first school where the job occurs. It should be signed by the building administrator or designee. The form requires the substitute teacher to indicate the date, the name of teacher they are subbing for, the location they will be traveling to, the exact mileage to the location, including odometer readings. If it is a multiple day sub job they can indicate the number of days they traveled.
2. If you want to be paid right away you can bring your signed form to Accounting and Dee Radek will pay for the mileage through petty cash. However, it is recommended that the substitute teachers keep their mileage form/s for a semester at a time and submit them to Accounting at the end of each semester. Accounting will then issue a check for their entire semester mileage reimbursement.
3. If a substitute teacher accepts two ½ day jobs (for two different teachers) the sub will be paid for two ½ days and will not receive mileage reimbursement.

Does training matter in today's economy? [top]Recently, as we worked with a number of managers of substitute teachers, some interesting feedback was given as it relates to the current challenges faced by substitute teachers. . Even though budget cuts are constantly on the front page, the skill level of substitute teachers outweighs the budget issues two to one. That means districts struggle more with substitute teacher performance than with managing budget cuts and management issues. Performance can be improved with training, especially if it includes the following skills:
By focusing the training of substitute teachers in these five areas, many complaints registered against substitute teachers can be eliminated. Considering the sizes of the current sub-pools, now is the perfect time to require training prior to employment and to also offer annual refreshers in the key areas previously listed.
