(Atlantic) The Atlantic School District will temporarily use long-term substitutes to fill some vacant teaching positions.
Atlantic School’s superintendent Steve Barber says they will fill the open positions with the staff within the system while continuing to pursue new prospects.”Fortunately, we have some substitutes that have served our district for many years, and they have some education, toward their discipline that we will ask them to teach,” said Barber. “Everyone serves an important role in our school district, whether it be a food service worker, bus driver, a para, custodian, teacher, or administrator,” said Barber. “They are all important to our school district in serving and providing the best opportunity for our kids.”
The district needs to fill the following positions, a high school math teacher, two high school language arts instructors, an ESL, and a title I teacher. The good news, it appears the Food Service Department hired five new employees, along with numerous para-professionals.
