Facing a shrinking pool of substitute teachers, a few school districts in Indiana have announced major pay raises to entice subs with teaching experience back to the classroom.
Last month, Elkhart Community Schools announced a $350 full day rate for teachers who have retired from the district, as well as $300 for all other retired teachers, up from $145 last year.
And Muncie Community Schools announced it will double the daily rate for substitute teachers who have teaching licenses, experience in the classroom, and at least a master’s in education from $105 per day to $210 per day.
