Voluntary Separation Guidance Document

Maintaining Active Substitute Status

To remain an active substitute, you must complete at least six substitute assignments during each school year. This requirement helps ensure that substitutes remain engaged and available to support our schools. This minimum assignment requirement does not apply to substitutes who were hired during the final months of the school year. Substitutes who do not complete at least six assignments during the school year may be separated from employment. 

Substitute Termination

Our current practices, developed in collaboration with the Workplace Relations (WPR) team, are grounded in our commitment to student safety and the delivery of high-quality instruction. School administrators are responsible for the educational program at their assigned location and retain authority regarding substitute assignments within their building.

If a substitute is not meeting expectations, a school administrator may initiate a Substitute Removal Request to prevent the substitute from accepting future assignments at their location.

Substitute removals are typically requested when a substitute fails to comply with district policies or the expectations outlined in the substitute and employee handbooks. Upon review, SubCentral will take appropriate action, which may include immediate removal from the school location and updating the substitute’s profile to prevent future assignments at that site. SubCentral will communicate the concerns directly to the substitute. Substitutes who receive three (3) removal requests, for any reason, will be removed as an active substitute from LCPS. 

Reference Requests

Due to the nature of substitute assignments, the SubCentral Team does not complete employment references, recommendation forms, or provide performance-based evaluations for current or former substitutes. 

Employment Verification

Substitute employment verification requests, including confirmation of employment dates and position information, must be submitted through the Employment Verification Team at employmentverification@lcps.org. Requests must include appropriate authorization from the employee or former employee before information can be released.

For additional information regarding employment verification requests, please contact the Employment Verification Team.
