Long-term Substitute Access to Technology
A long-term sub is a CONTRACTED substitute filling a single staff position for 21 consecutive days or more at one location. If their contract has been extended, your office manager will need to update the district. At the end of their contract date, just like any staff member, their access to selected district sites will be restricted.
As a standard, all substitutes automatically have a PISD computer login, email and Google account. If they have forgotten their password, contact the Help Desk or your CTA to reset it and it will be pushed through to their district accounts.
Principals will need to request access from the district so that they can log into digital resources.
