Minot School District continuing search for more substitute teachers

The Minot Public School District is facing a common but pressing challenge: a shortage of substitute teachers, particularly in elementary schools and at Minot Air Force Base. While there are nearly 200 substitutes available, many only cover high school classes, leaving younger students vulnerable when teachers are absent. Sarah Putt, a human resources assistant, highlights the importance of having qualified substitutes in every classroom to ensure that students receive uninterrupted learning. Efforts are underway, both locally and at the state level, to streamline the process for potential substitutes. KX News has more on the story linked below.
