Celebrate substitutes on their day

Substitute teachers play a vital role in the daily work of educating all students for success, and their efforts are recognized during Substitute Educators Day on Nov. 22.

Whether they are retired teachers or those who have an interest in education, substitutes provide a critical link in the education of children in public schools by stepping in when a regular classroom teacher is absent to provide continued quality education to children on a temporary basis.

Please, use this form to nominate an amazing substitute that has a special love for teaching, is planning to become a teacher, or is a retired teacher with a remarkable story. Nominations will be accepted through Nov. 11. Dallas ISD’s Substitute Office will review nominations and one or more may be featured in The Beat. 

And don’t forget to thank and celebrate the substitutes at your school the week of Nov. 18 and, especially, on Nov. 22.
