Substitute Teachers Committee Representatives and Steering Committee

The Substitute Unit will assist the Payroll Department for any substitute teacher who experiences payroll issues. Substitute teachers can come to the Substitute Unit located at 333 S. Beaudry Avenue on the 15th floor. We will work with substitute teachers by getting their information and forwarding it to payroll for action. This includes requesting emergency checks for those substitutes who did not receive any pay. (Online service to check if your paycheck is accurate)
