SubstituteS shall be employed and paid on a per diem basis without the issuance of an employment contract. Employing a substitute for less than one-half day is strongly discouraged.   For purposes of payment, a substitute teacher must work four and three quarter hours or more (Kronos) to be considered a full day.

Unless inclement weather or an emergency situation requires a delayed school opening or an early school closing, the substitute  follows School Board Regulation GAA-AR Staff Time Schedules for hours of employment.

The Staunton City School Board does not discriminate based on race, color, national origin, age, religion, political affiliation, gender or disability in its educational programs or employment.  No person shall be denied employment solely because of any impairment that is unrelated to the ability to engage in activities in the position or program for which application is being made.
