Foxborough Regional Charter School District is committed to creating a work environment that celebrates and promotes diversity and is proud to be an equal-opportunity employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, national origin, genetics, disability, age, or veteran status.

Foxborough Regional Charter School District (FRCS) is a unique and diverse school serving students from across southeastern Massachusetts. Approximately 1,500 students and families come from urban and suburban communities and represent various backgrounds, ethnicities, and experiences. Families in our three vibrant school communities (Elementary, Middle, & High School) speak over 20 languages and live in over 20 sending districts. Diversity is one of our greatest strengths;

it drives positive student learning and life at our school. At FRCS, we value equity, teamwork, respect, and growth, and we have committed to hiring and retaining a diverse staff and employees who are committed to an antiracist curriculum and ideals.

The Instructional Building Substitute (IBS) is an essential part of the school community, ensuring that learning continues smoothly when classroom teachers are absent. This role goes beyond just “filling in”; the IBS helps maintain a sense of stability for students, keeps them engaged in meaningful learning, and encourages every child to succeed academically and socially.

The IBS works across various grade levels and subject areas, bringing flexibility, creativity, and patience to each assignment. Because no two days are exactly the same, the IBS must be ready to adapt quickly, follow teacher‑provided plans, and collaborate closely with other educators to meet student needs. The IBS is not just a substitute; you are a vital member of the teaching team.

By stepping in with reliability and care, you help students feel supported and engaged, no matter the circumstances. You will play a key role in keeping classrooms running smoothly, inspiring curiosity, and building connections that make a lasting impact on students’ educational journey.

The successful candidate for this position will:

• Step into classrooms and deliver lessons prepared by teachers across subjects such as math, English language arts, science, social studies, art, music, and physical education.
• Create a welcoming and structured environment that helps students stay on track even when their teacher is away.
• Support student engagement by using a variety of teaching and classroom‑management strategies.
• Cover assignments of up to two weeks in a single class, ensuring consistency but also bringing variety to your teaching experiences.
• When not covering for a teacher’s absence, follow a scheduled plan to “push in” and support classrooms needing extra assistance—particularly in subjects like science, social studies, art, music, and physical education.
• Work side by side with classroom teachers to reinforce instruction, provide small‑group or individual student support, and contribute to the overall success of the learning environment.
• Encourage students not only in academics but also in building confidence, creativity, and positive character.
• Be a steady and reliable presence in the school each day, offering continuity for both students and staff.
• Manage oneself by being organized, prepared, and punctual.
• Manage resources, meet deadlines, and follow through on commitments.
• Act in ways that directly support the mission and vision of FRCS.
• Learn and grow as a professional.
• Use clear verbal and written communication and active listening skills.
• Develop and maintain rapport and effective relationships…
