[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone know the issue with subs? Are they just not paying enough? Is there a backup with HR screening potential employees?[/quote] Subs are mainly older people. They feel unsafe in the schools. It started because of Covid, but is now a violence issue for some. Getting knocked over because students are brawling is bad at 22-55, but you won’t break a hip. The average age of subs in our building was 68. A school that I subbed in had a 90 year old sub who wanted to work every day. Younger people who don’t want to break into teaching usually don’t sub. [/quote] +1 Subs are generally individuals who are retired/close to retirement. It absolutely is unsafe for them in a secondary classroom today. [/quote]
