All Classified substitutes (Clerical, Custodian, SPED Aide, Instructional Aide, Food Service Aide) are required to submit a completed timesheet for all time worked as a classified substitute. See sample timesheet for example on how to properly complete a timesheet.

How often do I get paid as a substitute?
Employees are paid once a month on the last working day of each month.

When are timesheets due into payroll?
Timesheets must be submitted to payroll no later than the 15th of each month. Pay periods run from the 11th through the 10th of each month.

Can I submit one timesheet even if I worked at multiple sites during the pay period?
No. You must submit a separate time sheet to the Front Office Secretary (Office Manager) of each site for which you worked for review and approval at the end of each pay period.

Do I need to submit a timesheet as a certificated substitute teacher?
No, certificated substitute teachers do not need to submit a timesheet. Substitute teachers are paid for days worked from jobs accepted through Frontline. Substitutes should cross reference their pay stub with the jobs accepted in Frontline for accuracy.
