r/cpssubs

Hello! I am trying to apply for a core cadre substitute teaching position, but cannot find the appropriate link. Any help is greatly appreciated!

I am newer to subbing (started midyear 25-26) and just picked up a day at Haugan elementary in Nov. I am curious - has anyone subbed here before and have feedback on what their middle school kids are like, specifically sixth grade? I've found that middle school jobs can be smooth sailing or absolute hell, and it seems to be based on what the school culture is like. It's closer to my house, but I just haven't been able to grab a job there yet. Any feedback is appreciated!

it’s only my second time working a sub shift for CPS and today i made a mistake. i punched substitute and swiped my badge when i first clocked in. however, when i clocked out, i mistakenly punched “substitute” again and swiped, forgetting that you cannot press” substitute” twice on Kronos. do i alert the school or CPS HR about my messed-up punch? how do i go about this?

Keep an eye on your emails. I just got off the waitlist today and I’m finally back to my Cadre status

I emailed sub services in august and have followed up with them multiple times now after getting one response back when I emailed the first time. When or will I ever get an email back from them? I emailed about a pay change since I now have my PEL and qualify for the increase in pay.
