Guest Teaching

Guest teachers MUST sub a minimum of 15 days during the 2024-2025 school year. Guest teachers meeting this requirement are considered an ACTIVE SUB for next school year and will remain on the approved guest teacher list AND~~do not need to be re-fingerprinted.~ Failure to work the minimum 15 days during the school year will result in removal from the approved guest teacher list. 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. 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.
