SEBB Eligibility
SEBB eligibility for substitutes is determined by Washington Administrative Code (WAC) 182-31-040.
A substitute can earn SEBB benefits by:
Working 630 hours in a school year. Once the 630 hours is met, the substitute will be notified of SEBB eligibility and have 31 days to complete their enrollment.
Qualifying for a two year lookback of eligibility. Once a substitute has earned 630 hours for SEBB eligibility for two year consecutively, they will be eligible to continue their benefits at the start of the third school year. Example: If a substitute earned SEBB in the 22/23 and 23/24 school years, they would be eligible to continue their benefits into the 24/25 school year.
A verification of hours is conducted monthly to determine if any substitute, or staff on assignment, have earned SEBB benefits.
If you have a question if you are SEBB eligible, please reach out to benefits@auburn.wednet.edu.
SEBB Billing
We bill SEBB monthly based upon the wages you have earned the previous month. In August and September, a substitute is not anticipated to have a payroll check. Sebb billing will be set up to pull the monthly premium for August and September on the July payroll check.
Please reach out to benefits@auburn.wednet.edu if you need to discuss payment options for August and September.
To remain active in the Auburn School District, substitutes must work 4 times a month. This is on average one time a week. Although the District has an assignment work minimum, we do understand that special circumstances exist that may prevent a substitute from meeting the district minimum. Therefore, the Auburn School District Substitute Office requires that if you plan to be unavailable to work due to a vacation, sick leave (or extended medical leave periods), working another job, etc. please enter non-workdays into the Absence Management System. By entering non-workdays in the Absence Management, this will allow the Substitute Office to review that data at the end of the school year to consider active substitute status for the following school year.
Substitute employment is an at-will relationship between the Auburn School District and the substitute employee. Due to the at-will nature of this relationship, it may be terminated at any time by either party. Accepting substitute work is by no means an offer of permanent and/or on-going employment. Additionally, nothing in employee manuals, personnel policies, employment documentation, substitute supplemental information, or oral communication shall be deemed to create an employment contract or to modify this at-will relationship.
