As a result of a $2.8 million "budget error," the Nampa School District in Idaho will soonrun out of money for substitute teachers, reports the Idaho Press-Tribune. The solution? Rely on volunteers to do the job.
Steve Kipp, the district's human resource officer, told the paper that volunteer substitutes will be required to pass background and reference checks and sign a contract outlining their responsibilities. Volunteers will not be required to complete training courses (paid substitutes are not required to either, but the district gives preference to those who do, he explained).
