Schools all over are struggling with obtaining subs. It’s not just for sick/personal days. Without subs, we can’t offer training, include them in curriculum planning, or support activities that make lasting memories for your kids. Please share with anyone who might be interested.
We're proud to certify over 25 people in December to become Guest Teachers! As long as you have a bachelors degree, this program is for everybody! Checking with our Guest Teacher Program webpage for February registration! cliu.org/Page/125 #helpingchildrenlearn
