Substitute Teachers
If you are interested in becoming a substitute teacher, but do not hold an Oregon Teaching or Substitute License, you may qualify for a Restricted Substitute Teaching License.
Substitute Teaching License
The Substitute Teaching License is issued to educators who have completed a teacher preparation program but do not hold a regular Oregon teaching license.
The Substitute Teaching License permits an educator to substitute teach in prekindergarten through grade 12 Oregon public school districts, education service districts, and charter school assignments to replace a teacher who is temporarily unable to work.
Restricted Substitute Teaching License
The Restricted Substitute Teaching License is issued to qualified individuals who hold a minimum of a bachelor’s degree, but have not completed a teacher preparation program.
The Restricted Substitute Teaching License permits a qualified individual to substitute teach in a prekindergarten through grade 12 Oregon public school district, education service districts, and charter school assignments.
Under the Restricted Substitute License you cannot work more than 10 consecutive days on the same assignment.
To apply to be a substitute teacher at Kings Valley Charter School, follow the steps below:
Submit an application.
The HR Manager will schedule a call with you to discuss next steps, including contacting references, and scheduling a time for you to meet with the Executive Director or Director of Education.
