Substitute Teacher Pool – Cleveland Jewish Community Schools

The Cleveland Jewish community is looking to build a community-wide pool of Substitute Teachers to support our network of schools. This effort is a centralized resume gathering process: applicants will be added to a community-wide pool, and each individual school will handle its own hiring and placement.
About the Role
Substitutes play a critical role in supporting classroom learning. Working in a supportive community, subs help create a nurturing, safe, and engaging environment for students while reinforcing both academic and social development.

Qualifications

• Experience working with children in a classroom or childcare setting valued.
• Strong communication skills and ability to work collaboratively with staff.
• Patience, adaptability, and respect for Jewish culture and traditions.
• Must meet state background check requirements.

How It Works

• Submit your resume to be included in the Cleveland Jewish Substitute Teacher Pool.
