Additional information and resources
You are encouraged to have all required documents at either the appointment time for your fingerprinting/background check or when you are ready to begin substitute teaching. Applicants will not be placed on the Stark County Substitute Teacher List until all required paperwork and attachments have been submitted to the Stark County ESC for processing and approval.

Ohio law does not permit the treasurer of a local/city/JVS/ESC to pay a substitute teacher unless the above requirements have been met prior to your work. Payroll forms are available from each district treasurer where you substitute and must be completed prior to reimbursement for your work as a substitute teacher.

Any changes or corrections in your contact information or availability status must be either called in, 330/492‐8136 ext 312, or e‐mailed to Linda Berkebile.

Substitutes who are on the active list at the end of the school year will receive information, via US mail by June 30, regarding reasonable assurance of employment as a substitute teacher for the following school year.
