We wanted to reach out to all our PAC families to see if anyone would be interested in becoming a substitute teacher here at PAC.
As a substitute teacher you could be on the same schedule as your children, choose to work only at PAC, and can choose to be a long-term substitute at times as well. If interested, please apply on the Calvert County website or contact PAC directly and we can help you get started.
