Substitute Teacher Training Sessions

 

The Newton County School System no longer offers substitute teacher training sessions. These sessions will be offered through Griffin Regional Educational Service Agency (RESA), located in Griffin, GA.

Candidates interested in substitute teaching in Newton County will need to attend one of the half-day sessions held at Griffin RESA. Upon completion of this session, each candidate will receive a certificate. This certificate is required in order for a candidate to obtain a substitute teacher application packet from the Newton County School System Human Resources Department.

Once an application packet is issued, the candidate must submit the completed packet to the NCSS HR Department. At this time candidates will be fingerprinted. Finally, all candidates with a clear criminal background will be required to attend a two hour information session that will be held at the Newton County Board of Education during the month of October.

 

NEXT TRAINING SESSION is August 16, 2011

Where: Griffin RESA

Time: 9 AM to 12 Noon

Fee: $25 Cash (must be exact change) or Money Order. (Griffin RESA will NOT accept checks.)

Those interested in attending must contact Ms. Susan Rivers at 770-229-3247, ext. 218 or by email at srivers@griffinresa.net to register.

 

NOTE:

If you hold a teaching certificate and are not under contract call the Human Resoures Office to inquire about long-term substitute teaching vacancies and eligibility.
