SUBSTITUTE TEACHERS
Thomasville City Schools substitute teachers are an important part of our educating children.

Our substitutes carry on that instruction as the teacher.
Currently, substitute teachers must have the following requirements:
- At least a high school diploma.
- Forty-eight (48) semester hours of post high school work is preferred; however, it is not required.
