Substitute Teacher Procedures
DISTRICT 128 maintains a list of substitutes who are called on an as-needed basis to substitute at Libertyville High School and Vernon Hills High School. While we welcome inquiries and applications for substitute teaching, we do not guarantee regular employment as a substitute. We maintain an extensive list of approved substitutes and as needed, over the course of the school year, we may add to our current list. When an application is submitted, we hold the application in reserve and advance it to our active list as needs arise. At that time, we will contact applicants to complete additional paperwork and employment requirements.
In order to be placed on the substitute call list, the following items must be completed and submitted in person to our district office at 50 Lakeview Parkway, Suite 101, Vernon Hills, IL.
