• I can be reached during the weekend for emergency requests.
• Always make sure you receive an email from me confirming a substitute for your classes. 
• Please do not contact the substitute yourself. 
• If you have a preference for a specific substitute, specify his/her name and I will try to secure him/her.  If for any reason he/she is not available, I will provide the best available substitute for your class. 
• If another staff member will cover your class, it is important that you inform both your divisional principal and myself. 
• Make sure you have sufficient lesson plans to cover the duration of class time. 
• Substitutes are not allowed to assess or evaluate student work. 
• Providing feedback regarding the substitute’s performance will help ensure hiring/keeping the best substitutes. 
• Text messages and emails for a short term notice are not an effective method of communication, and I can’t guarantee that I can help you with a substitute if I am contacted through either of those means. If you urgently need a substitute please call me on my telephone number. 
• Substitute requests for personal, maternity, professional, vacation, administrative or unpaid leaves will be processed after you have received written approval from your divisional principal.  Written approval must be obtained prior to your absence.
