Long Term Pay

I am so beyond upset right now. I accepted two long term sub positions for this year. Was told it would be $220 a day by admin along with the job posting. Just got a call from admin saying because I’m not certified yet I will only be making $80 a day… the same rate I make now normally subbing. How does the district possibly think that $80 a day is enough pay for long term subbing?! You become the teacher. Lesson planning, grading, talking to parents, assessments, all of it falls on the long term sub. It is so discouraging that they think full time teaching is worth only $80. Ofc I’m going to do it because I love these kids and love being in the school but I haven’t stopped crying since I got that call. Feel beyond worthless.

Update: Admin at the school fought their asses off for me without me ever complaining about the pay. Now making $240 a day :) Everything worked out perfectly and I am in love with my job.
