Substitute Certificates
Student teachers placed in the following school districts are required to get their substitute certificate well before their first day of student teaching. There may be other districts with the same requirement who have not yet contacted our office; students should check with their assigned district. Instructions on applying for the substitute certificate are found HERE. You will need to contact the Registrar's office here on campus to request that your transcripts be sent to DESE. Once placed with these districts, you should contact them to let them know that you have your substitute certificate and check to see if they have any other paperwork that you should complete before student teaching.
