Substitute teacher jobs in California

Each listing links to the original posting on the school or district's own site, where you complete the application. SubPool does not process applications. You can also join SubPool to be matched with similar jobs automatically.

Requirements vary by state and district. Many states require at least a high-school diploma plus a substitute permit, while others require a bachelor's degree or a teaching credential. Some districts list "non-degreed" substitute roles. Check the requirements on each posting.

Daily pay typically ranges from about $90 to $265 per day depending on the state, district, and whether the role is a daily, long-term, or building substitute position. Many listings include the daily rate in the title.

A daily (or per-diem) substitute fills in day to day as needed. A long-term or building substitute covers a single classroom or stays at one school for an extended assignment, often several weeks or a full semester.
