Substitute Teacher

Mason Preparatory School is an independent school dedicated to educating the whole child by inspiring curiosity, fostering community, and developing character through an engaging, student-centered learning environment, strong relationships, and academic excellence.

We are looking for dependable, caring, and enthusiastic individuals for substitute teaching opportunities that may arise throughout the school year across different grade levels and subject areas. Substitutes play an important role in supporting our faculty and ensuring continuity of learning and supervision when the lead classroom teacher is absent. This is a great opportunity for retired educators, college graduates, education professionals, and others who enjoy working with children and want a flexible way to contribute to a school community.

You choose the assignments that fit your availability, making this an excellent opportunity for individuals looking for flexible, as-needed work.

* This is an ongoing applicant pool rather than a posting for one specific vacancy. Applications will be reviewed as substitute needs arise throughout the school year. Qualified applicants may be contacted regarding available assignments based on school needs, experience, qualifications, and availability. Submission of an application does not guarantee employment or consideration for a specific position.*
