Substitute Information

Carroll ISD considers substitute teaching an important phase of our total school program. The substitute teacher plays a vital role in upholding the high standards of teachers which we maintain in our school system. Therefore, the presence of the substitute teacher must ensure a continuous program of quality instruction for all children. A substitute teacher is one of the most valuable assets of Carroll ISD. Our faculty could not deliver the level of instruction expected by our community without the help and support of dedicated substitute teachers.

  • At least 21 years old
