Steps to Become a Life School Substitute
- To apply for a substitute position, complete the Substitute Application.
- After review of applicant, Life School Human Resources will contact qualified applicants as soon as possible.
- If it is determined that you are a good fit for Life School, you will be contacted via e-mail regarding fingerprinting instructions. Senate Bill 9 requires all Life School substitutes to submit digital fingerprints for a criminal history review. Completion of the fingerprinting process is not a promise for employment with the district.
- Once you have completed your fingerprinting, please submit a copy of the receipt to Life School Human Resource Department.
- Once HR receives your fingerprinting receipt, we will contact you via e-mail to finalize the hiring process.
If you have already submitted fingerprints in the State of Texas for education purposes and we can verify your results, we will e-mail your next steps regarding a mandatory orientation.
