Building substitutes are embedded within a single school community for the duration of a school year. They report to the same school each day, checking in with clerical and administrative staff to receive assignments. As an integral member of the team, building substitutes are flexible, filling short-term vacancies created by teacher and professional assistant absences. From covering for someone stuck in traffic to filling in for a teacher on a week-long medical leave, building substitutes are onsite and can be mobilized quickly. Their daily interactions allow them to develop a collegial relationship with other teachers and support staff. The benefits of enlisting the help of a building substitute are clear, and building substitutes themselves also benefit as they have the opportunity to be seen as regular and valued members of a school community. All members of the school community benefit from the advantages these special substitutes provide. Teachers are reassured that their classrooms are in good hands, while students experience greater security and improved education when greeted by these familiar faces.
