If a guest teacher terminates active status with St. Johns County Schools, the individual will be required to reapply when the next guest position is offered. If selected all new hire requirements will be necessary, including security clearance (fingerprint and drug screen) and training. It is the guest teacher’s responsibility to notify in writing the Human Resources office if they are no longer interested in guest teaching. All guest teachers are considered “At Will As Needed” workers who are not guaranteed employment on a daily basis nor during the summer months or scheduled breaks. Guest teachers receive $15.00, per hour worked. Long term guests receive $20.00 hour rate for jobs 4 weeks or longer. Guest teachers should be Florida certified or hold Bachelors degree or higher in area of instruction to be eligible for long term jobs. ASSIGNMENT CHANGES AT SCHOOLS: Guest teachers are able to select the school and grade level/subject of their preference, but be advised that the guest teacher serves at the need of the school and specific jobs are subject to change should the school see fit. Flexibility is appreciated.
