District-Dedicated Full-Time Substitute Teacher - Vacancy ID: 268081

The Berlin Area School District is searching for a passionate and talented full-time District-Dedicated Substitute Teacher for the 2026-27 school year. A District-Dedicated Substitute Teacher is full-time (172 student contact days) and is benefits-eligible.  This position is not specific to a school or grade level and is expected to step into our long-term assignments if needed. Building administrators will work with their team to provide as much support as possible when these transitions occur.  If there are no unfilled staffing needs at the three different schools, the District-Dedicated Substitute Teacher will remain in a building for extra coverage.  This position requires a great deal of flexibility and a “go-with-the-flow” attitude.

A District-Dedicated Substitute Teacher assists with classroom instruction in the absence of the regular teacher.  This person follows and teaches lesson plans, aids students in understanding the subject matter, and ensures that regular classroom routines are followed.

• Provide meaningful instruction to students in assigned classrooms while the regular teacher is absent.  
• Review and implement regular teacher’s routines, procedures, lesson plans, and curriculum objectives.
• Establish and maintain a safe and orderly classroom environment.
