Dallas ISD Substitute Newsletter
November 2020 Edition
SPECIAL THANKS!!
**All substitutes must accept a minimum of 5 assignments each month in order to remain active in the substitute pool. We need your help to ensure all classes are covered in the absence of the teacher.
PERMANENT LONG-TERM SUBSTITUTES NEEDED
To assist campuses during the pandemic with substitute coverage, each campus has been afforded a long-term substitute at their campus to float to different grade levels based on the campus needs. Please note - this substitute will report each day to the campus to assist with last-minute absences or vacancies. These assignments can be found in the Absence Management system under COVID Teacher 1, COVID Teacher 2 or COVID Teacher 3. If you have any other questions, please feel free to reach directly out to the Substitute Office.

WALK-IN HOURS
The Substitute Office & the district's overall goal is to ensure that the campuses have the support needed in the absence of the teacher. Please know the safety, health, and well-being of our employees is our top priority. Due to the pandemic, we are asking that substitutes contact our team by email or phone to avoid heavy traffic in the main lobby. Substitutes may email us at substitute@dallasisd.org.

SUBSTITUTE CAMPUS COORDINATOR LIST
Each campus has a set person or people who work with the substitute population. It may be an office manager, an assistant principal, or a financial clerk. This coordinator is in charge of handling substitute assignments, classroom placements, and most importantly time sheets. On the substitute webpage there is a link to the substitute campus coordinator for each campus. Please refer to this list anytime you have questions regarding your assignment or payment for that specific campus. It is a common misconception that the substitute office handles payroll for substitutes. Each campus (typically the office manager) is in charge of submitting time sheets to payroll for all assignments worked on their campus. If you ever believe there is a discrepancy on your paycheck, please be sure to reach out to the specific campus you took your assignments at. Below is a link to the substitute webpage where you can find the Substitute Campus Coordinator Contact List.
FORGOT YOUR EAD USERNAME/PASSWORD?
Employees who have forgotten their EAD username and/or password can visit the Dallas ISD Password Portal at http://password.dallasisd.org.
If employees still have problems logging into the application or have other technical difficulties, they should submit a Remedyforce ticket at http://remedyforce.dallasisd.org/ or call the IT Service Desk at (972) 925-5630.

PROPER TIME KEEPING PROCEDURES-BIOMETRIC CLOCK
Substitutes do not have access to the online web clock and will need to continue using the biometric clock for clocking in and out at the campus.
READING AND WRITING RESOURCES
Graphic Organizers are great to help our student scholars guide their thinking and build upon a visual map of topics during reading. Graphic Organizers can be used for social studies and mathematics as well. A great website to download free graphic organizers is http://freeology.com/graphicorgs/.
Read Works is an excellent website that provides reading passages to aid in building reading comprehension and also offers paired passages for comparative reading in like subject areas. It's also a great source for lessons and comprehension.
