Substitute Teacher Information
Lee/Ogle ROE maintains the personnel files for all
substitutes as required by law. Please bring in these documents when you apply
to be a Lee/Ogle Substitute Teacher.
- a record of a physical examination - obtain from
physician
- results of a tuberculin test taken within a year of
hiring or applying to be a substitute - obtain from physician
- a criminal background check - obtain form from ROE
- substitute, initial, or standard certificate
- transcripts of college work
- completed Employment Eligibility Verification (US

When each substitute teacher’s file is complete, that
person’s name will be distributed to the districts where (s)he plans to
substitute. Some districts maintain some or all of this information in
files for substitute teachers who work in their districts.
The following information may be helpful as you gather the
required documentation:
- If you are a recent graduate who has not yet received
your certificate, your entitlement papers from your university are enough to
be placed on the substitute list when all other items have been submitted to
the ROE.
- Previous physical exams can be verified with a note
from the doctor/office that completed the medical work. Complete results of
examinations are not necessary. A copy of tuberculin test results no older
than a year is sufficient.
- Requests for criminal background checks will be sent
from the ROE when you notify this office that you intend to substitute
teach. If you have already undergone such a check through our office, the
record of that is sufficient. If you completed a check through a school
district office, ask the district to call the ROE for verification.
Effective August 12, 2004, all new substitutes (by law) need to have finger
printing. Instruction on how to do this is provided as each county differs
on the method used.
- If transcripts are not already on file at the ROE, you
will need to provide these.
- The I-9 and mandated reporter forms are available at
the ROE.
- The ROE will request verification of the required
documents from any Lee/Ogle district where a substitute teacher was recently
employed as a part-time or full-time teacher.
