THE ALBUQUERQUE PUBLIC SCHOOL DISTRICT IS HIRING SUBSTITUTE TEACHERS…HUNDREDS OF THEM. APS SAYS THE TEACHER SHORTAGE HERE AND NATIONWIDE MEANS SUBS ARE DOING MORE LONG-TERM WORK ASSIGNMENTS, MAKING IT’S HARDER TO PUT SOMEONE IN A CLASSROOM FOR SHORT-TERM POSITIONS.
SUBSTITUTES FILL-IN WHEN TEACHERS ARE ILL, OUT TRAINING OR IN CASES OF EMERGENCIES. THE DISTRICT IS ALSO LOOKING TO HIRE MORE EDUCATIONAL ASSISTANT SUBSTITUTES. APPLICATIONS FOR BOTH POSITIONS CAN BE FOUND AT WWW.APS.EDU.
