POSITION OVERVIEW 

KIPP Jacksonville Public Schools seeks part-time substitutes to work in our schools. These substitute teachers might provide coverage in several ways.

Part time substitute teachers would be scheduled on an as-needed basis and would be called in advance to confirm their school assignment for the day and their daily schedules.

For the 2022-23 school year, teachers at KIPP Jacksonville Public Schools work from 7:30 am. - 4:30pm, Monday through Friday. Student hours are typically  8am - 3:30pm. Staff hours vary slightly at each of our K-8 schools. Staff hours at the high school are 6:30am - 3:30pm and student hours are 7:00am - 2:30 pm. Every Wednesday is a student early release day (1:30 pm dismissal for K-8 and 12:30pm dismissal at the high school), which allows teachers to participate in weekly professional development.
