Substitute Pay Information

Understanding Substitute Teacher Salaries

The daily rate of pay is $70 per day for the first 25 cumulative days worked.  A full day is considered to be greater than 4 hours.  If less than four hours are worked, the sub will be paid for a half day.  The daily rate will be $100 per day beginning with the 26th cumulative day and will stay at that rate for the remainder of 2009-2010.

Retired or former certified CFB teachers will receive $100 per day beginning with the first day of employment as a substitute.  Substitutes are eligible for $100 a day if they attend an eight hour substitute teacher training class offered by Region 10 Education Service Center.  Cost for this training is $75 to be paid by the substitute.  Once the substitute submits a certificate of completion to the substitute office, the rate of pay starts at $100 a day and will remain at that rate for two years.  

For Long-Term classroom teacher assignments:
A long-term assignment shall be defined as an assignment that will last a minimum of 16 consecutive days or more.  The rate of pay will begin at $70 per day and will go to $100 on the 16th day of the same assignment.  If the substitute holds a current Texas teaching certificate in the field they have been assigned in a long-term position, the rate of pay will begin at $100 per day.

Note:  Every effort is made to place a substitute who is certified in the subject area in a long-term teaching assignment.

Once the long-term assignment has concluded, the rate of pay will stay at $100 per day for the remainder of the 2009-2010 school year regardless of whether 25 cumulative days have been met.

Understanding Substitute Aide Salaries 

Only certain classroom aide positions are approved to get a substitute when the regular aide is absent.  The daily rate of pay for a substitute classroom aide is $70 per day.  The rate of pay remains $70 regardless of the number of days worked in an aide position.
