[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a college professor. I think it would be somewhat fun to come in and sub at my kids' elementary school. They are paying $16 an hour. Sorry, but I'd rather just stay home and watch TV because that is an offensive rate of pay. I'm teaching a little training session to a company next week for $500/hour. I'd probably sub for $30 an hour, which is like 10% of what I'm typically worth and still less than most teachers in FCPS make on an hourly basis (if you really divide their salaries by their hours worked)[/quote]

A sub is not worth a teacher unless they are long term and making their own lesson plans.

I hear you though, pay is crap and might as well get an easier job for the same pay. Which is what people have done before the pandemic even.

I feel bad OP, I hope you weren’t expecting real solutions because it’s not in your school’s control. Tell your admin to help advocate for better pay for subs AND paras.[/quote]

Well OP asked for suggestions for where to post to attract applicants. And maybe two or three posters actually answered the question asked. So I do think OP was expecting real solutions, I don’t think OP thought people just ignore the question. [/quote]
