Lobby Guard: All substitutes are required to sign in on the Lobby Guard when reporting for an assignment. If you are subbing on a campus with multiple buildings, it is necessary to sign in on the Lobby Guard at only one building for the day. If your substitute job requires traveling between campuses, you must sign in on the Lobby Guard at each campus every day. Please sign out on the Lobby Guard at the end of your assignment. 4
Substitute Responsibilities 1. Report at least 30 minutes before classes begin to the site office; sign-in with the administrative assistant; check in at Lobby Guard and wear name tag; obtain the teacher’s sub folder; and check teacher’s mailbox for attendance sheets/daily announcements. 2. The District prefers that you do not leave the campus during the teacher’s planning period. Please notify the site administrative assistant if you must leave campus prior to the end of your assignment. 3. Teachers’ personal items (i.e., classroom computers) are not to be used without specific permission from the teachers. 4. Routines and procedures will vary from site to site, so please ask questions. Remember, you are here to serve and assist. This job is not a personal podium for expounding opinions or beliefs to a captive audience. Remember, students WILL report unacceptable behavior. Occasionally, it may be determined that an individual is not acceptable for our substitute program and will be removed from the substitute teacher list. 5. Review the teacher’s plans for the day and follow as closely as possible. Clarify any questions. Contact the department head or neighboring teacher for help or additional work. Leave notes for the teacher on any changes to the assignment. Grade papers when appropriate or by teacher’s request. 6. The teacher’s sub folder should contain subject/class schedules, seating charts, alternative lesson plans, etc. If the folder is missing or incomplete, advise the administrative assistant or building principal. It’s a tool designed to give you control of the day. If there is a Class Evaluation Form, complete it and return to the administrative assistant at the end of your day. 7. An Emergency Procedures Guide should be posted in every classroom. Guidelines for specific emergency situations are outlined to assist everyone in the event of an emergency. 8. Professional Dress is addressed in Board Policy 2.03, which states that “Attire and grooming for all employees should be reasonable, modest, and in such style as will not cause distraction and will be appropriate at all times.” Model success. School Spirit Days. . .all sites allow JPS t-shirts/sweatshirts to be worn with jeans on Fridays. 9. Subs should never photograph or video students. Subs are not to contact students via text, social media or other electronic means. All contact should be professional. 10. Early Class Dismissal will be by emergency (i.e., fire) or an official notice from the school’s office. Other wise, adhere to the building’s bell schedule. 11. Never leave your class unattended. Send a student for assistance; use the telephone; or contact the teacher across the hall. 12. By law, the sub must remain in the classroom with an intern teacher. 13. Not all sites issue a room key to the sub. If you are given a key, lock the door any time you leave. A neat and orderly classroom at the end of the day is appreciated. 5
14. Do not charge food purchases in the cafeteria. Brown-bag it or bring money. Adult plate lunches and other items are available to be purchased on an a la carte basis at each site. 15. Adhere to professional/ethical standards. Be very careful, aware of your (and the students’) language or topic of conversation in or out of the classroom! Respect opinions or stop the conversation with “that topic is closed.” Cursing or name-calling is not justified. Avoid talking down to others. Refrain from expressing opinions of, or comparisons between, the various buildings/teachers where you have subbed. 16. Remember confidentiality. Any information obtained regarding students, teachers, grades, etc. should not be shared with anyone other than school-authorized personnel. Confidentiality revolves around the phrase “need to know.” Before you say anything to anyone, ask yourself, “Does this person have a professional need to know this information: Or do I just “want to tell/gossip?” Check before taking any photos. 17. In case of emergency school closing, an official announcement will be distributed to area radio/ television stations. DO NOT report to your assignment. If no official “closing” announcement is issued, assume school will be in session and report. 18 Follow Jenks Board of Education Policies and Procedures. The complete policy manual is posted on the JPS website at jenksps.org. Please give particular attention to the following policy: 1.16 EMPLOYEE ETHICS The Board of Education expects employees to adhere at all times to recognized standards of professional ethical behavior. All District employees are role models and must exemplify ethical behavior and establish an example of acceptable behavior for students. Employees shall conduct themselves professionally when communicating and interacting with students, parents, and other staff members. Verbal and electronic communication shall be professional and respectful. Employees must not engage in conduct which detracts from a positive learning environment. Inappropriate exploitation of employee/student relationships will not be tolerated. Additionally, an employee may not interact with a student for personal gain. Exploitation of a student may result from an improper personal relationship encouraged by the teacher/administrator. Employees should be aware gestures and physical conduct, even though innocent and properly motivated, may be misinterpreted by students and parents/guardians. Therefore, employees must avoid any conduct that might be characterized as evidencing an improper and unprofessional personal involvement with a student. In their capacity as role models, employees are expected to establish an example of acceptable behavior standards for students. Employees are expected to encourage respect for the law and the institutions of our democratic society. Employees are expected to refrain from comments or statements (written, oral, or electronic), even in jest, reflecting adversity on any person or group with reference to race, religion, gender, age, national origin, veteran status or disability. Use of ethnic slurs constitutes unprofessional conduct. Employees of Jenks Public Schools are expected to recognize the District is funded through tax dollars and other public funds. As such, employees are not to utilize the property, time, or resources of the District for private purposes. Revised by the Board of Education, June 2009 Revised May 2011 Revised June 2018 Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) The controlling law for confidentiality of all student records is commonly known as FERPA (Family Education Rights and Privacy Act). Essentially, FERPA establishes procedures for parent and student access to student records and restricts release of those records to third parties. The FERPA regulations 6
concerning disclosure of student education records are described at 34 CFR 99.30-99.36. Amendments to FERPA resulted in new regulations on December 23, 1996, due to changes in the Improving America’s Schools Act of 1994. “Student education records” are defined as “Any information complied by an educational agency or institution which information is directly related to a student in present attendance at the agency or institution, regardless of the method of compiling that information, the medium in which it is presented, or the fact that the record is kept by a person acting in behalf of the educational agency or institution.” Information provided to transportation staff to assist in the orderly and safe transportation of a student, including handicapping condition, medical/health issues, or other personal characteristics or information, is protected by the provisions of the FERPA, and transportation staff shall be trained regarding confidentiality requirements. “Student educational records” refers not only to the physical custody of the records, but to the information contained in the records. This includes discussions of ANY nature, formal or informal. FERPA applies to any educational agency that is a recipient of federal funds from whatever source. ALL school districts in Oklahoma are recipients. Therefore, all employees of the district must follow FERPA. Parental consent must be obtained prior to the disclosure of school educational records to unauthorized persons. Such consent must be in the form of a signed and dated writing specifying the records to be disclosed, the purpose of the disclosure, and the parties to whom disclosure may be made for the disclosure to the effective. Discussions of other information regarding a student’s “status” (behavior, physical condition, etc.) also are considered to be student education records. FERPA states that “any information compiled by the educational agency directly related to the student qualifies as an educational record.” Allowing unauthorized person(s) to have access to any personally identifiable information on a student is contrary to federal law. Emergencies For more specific details see the the Emergency Procedures Guide posted in classrooms. The goal is to always remain calm, maintain order and not disrupt the classroom/students more than necessary.

If unable to exit due to conditions (heat, smoke, fire or other health/safety risk) • Shut the door • Stay low • Call 911, advise who you are, that you are trapped, number of occupants and location • Move to safest area possible • When possible, identify a means of escape • Immediately utilize any means of escape if your “safest area” is beginning to be compromised 6. An assigned staff member will check hallways and unoccupied rooms during an evacuation. 7. Plan procedures in advance for evacuating disabled students/staff. 8. Never enter a burning building. 9. Alarms may be silenced, but only reset with Fire Department approval. Accident/Serious Injury/Illness/Assault Definition: Emergency where one or more are sick or injured. Immediate concern is to aid the injured or sick person(s). Steps of Action: 1. In case of serious accident call 911 then the site nurse: FA, HS ..........2263, 2280 MS ...........5426, 5482 NW............ 1810, 1811 WE.................5613, 5614 EI..............5539 WE - F............6106 EE.............5503, 5504 WI..................2914, 2915 SE.............5805, 5804 2. Contact Administrator and stay with injured/sick person(s). 3. Office personnel to contact emergency services, Campus Police and/or parents/guardians, if necessary. 4. If a person trained in first aid is available, use him/her as appropriate. 5. Assign staff, as needed, to guide emergency responders to the incident location. 6. Remove uninjured students from accident site as soon as possible. 7. Maintain a list of witnesses for future reference. 9
Discipline/Classroom Management DO NOT Administer Corporal Punishment of any kind! Send and/or report severe behavior problems to the site, building, or assistant principal and document the incident. Inform the principal of any unusual incidents which occur during the day, especially those which may necessitate a conference with either students or parents. Handle minor problems in the classroom. In the event of any accident or health problem, the school nurse and principal must be notified. 1. Think before you act or speak. Use common sense. Work with students from a teacher’s level. Do not argue. Do not revert to the student’s level of thinking and acting. A harsh, authoritative, superior attitude does not “win” over students. It easily sets up the situation for failure/difficulty. 2. Foster and maintain a policy of fairness, firmness, and consistency. Students need to know what is expected. Whether they admit it or not, students like the concept of fair play. 3. Differentiate between the student and his/her actions. Recognize his/her worth as a person. While disapproving of the actions, be sure the students know you are not being critical of them as people. 4. Do not place the student in a position where he/she has to defend himself/herself before the peer group. Speak confidentially with the student at the desk or in the hallway if necessary. 5. Any cheating during testing is not tolerated! Pull the suspect test and leave documentation for the teacher. Silence is expected. A student’s field of vision should be limited to his or her own paper. 6. Stealing, destroying, or defacing school or personal property is not tolerated! Send the student to the principal’s office and document the incident. 7. If students begin fighting, use common sense. Send for help. Think of safety to self and others. Keep students and yourself from joining in as much as possible. Direct spectators away from the area. 8. The sub may or may not give detention (“D-hall”). The policy varies with each site. Check with the principal or building secretary. Usually, it is better to leave a written, detailed account of the situation for the teacher and allow the teacher to assign consequences. 9. Students may NOT carry any medication. The exceptions are: an “inhaler” with doctor’s written permission on file with nurse’s office and/or over-the-counter “cough drops” which do not require written permission. 10. Jenks Public Schools has a Closed Campus Policy. If a parent/guardian wishes to take a student away from school during regular school hours, he/she must sign the student out at the office. A note brought directly to the teacher is not acceptable. Parents are not to go directly to the student’s classroom. Students are NOT allowed to leave the building or campus without permission. Visitors must report first to the principal’s office. 10
Suggestions 1. Upon your arrival, acquaint yourself with the building, assigned room, exits, fire/tornado procedures, and nurse’s office, and introduce yourself to the teachers next door who are valuable resources. 2. Learn a few names from the seating chart. Call on these students. Knowing some names helps keep con- trol in the classroom. If time permits at the start of school or in between periods, stand by the classroom door and greet students with a smile and a look in the eye. Bring grade-appropriate “filler activities” (word search puzzles, crossword puzzles, vocabulary games, math races) in case the students finish early or there are no teacher lesson plans. 3. At the start of class, introduce yourself with your name already written on the chalkboard. Have the day’s assignment written on the chalkboard. Start the lesson quickly. Call on students, ask questions, use the chalkboard, keep them busy. . .MOVE. Don’t be bogged down by nonessential student questions, comments, conversation, or work avoidance. A busy student is usually not a problem. Always have some- thing for students to do (i.e. filler activities). 4. Take roll after students begin the assignment. Keep accurate attendance records. The method varies from site to site. Please check with the site administrative assistant. Report ALL absences and tardies. 5. Grade papers and or assignments only when appropriate or by teacher’s request. 6. Leave a report (evaluation) of the day’s activities and any “behaviors,” helpful or otherwise. Some sites have a carbonized form for this purpose. If necessary, have the teacher contact you at home to discuss the day’s events. 7. Some buildings do not want students to use chemical supplies or lab equipment/machines. Check first with the department head or principal. 8. A teacher’s lesson plans may be in the mailbox, sub folder, desk, or podium. Look around. Ask if unable to locate. 9. There is no district-wide rule concerning a student leaving the classroom (i.e. restroom, nurse, counselor). If you think a student is goofing off, don’t allow it. Otherwise, send a hall pass with the student and then follow up. 10. You may consider bringing a few supplies to assist you in your daily assignments. (just in case you’re unable to locate in the classroom) • A few rubber bands, paper clips, post it notes, ink pens, highlighters, handy wipes, coins/change (vending machines), and appointment calendar (for organizing your daily substitute assignments) Helpful Ideas from Author Harry Wong 1. Have the room inviting to students and ready for instruction. 2. Problems are proportional to distance. Position yourself near students. 3. Most effective learning takes place in a community of supportive learners. 4. Cooperate with each other. Compete only against yourself. 5. ALT (Academic Learning Time) - the more successful time spent on a task, the greater the student’s achievement. 6. The shorter the assignment the higher the achievement rate. 7. Intersperse questions throughout a lesson, one per 10 sentences. 8. Wait five seconds or more after asking a question. 9. You may be one of the few stable adults a student sees: an inspiration. 10. Human beings are the only species with the ability to improve their quality of life. 11
