Substitute Assignment Tips
It is worthwhile to check the FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) the district says it has installed on its website (SFUSD.edu) to check whether your common sense understanding matches their processes. Did you know that “No Records Found” and “No Work Available” means that the lines are busy? The district says their off-the-shelf program cannot make the change to something like “Busy, try again”. When the above messages are received the phone callers have to hang up and call again. On-line users have to refresh their cache or press the search button.
In addition to district’s training you can access a vendor’s 20-minute walkthrough. Go to www.eschoolssolutions.com/Sadie and then click on Substitutes.
Working Families Tax Credit
Substitute teachers and paraprofessionals are among those who may qualify for the matching funds the City of San Francisco grants to residents who earned less than $39,000 in 2006. To qualify for the City funds you must also file for the federal Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) and have at least one dependent child. Applications are available at public libraries, H & R Block offices and other venues. (415-557-6284 or www.ci.sf.ca.us).
Joint Union-District Substitute Committee
The recently appointed members of the UESF Substitute Committee are Jeff Giaquinto, Lauren Moret, Kathleen Murphy, Cathy O’Byrne-Shwechuk and Pam Routh. The committee members selected Pam Routh to be their Chairperson. Their first project was to work with the district on the January 26, 2007 Professional Development Workshop for Substitutes. Other issues of concern include the assignment system and substitute evaluations.
