Building Substitute Teacher | Des Moines Prep

About Des Moines Prep

Des Moines Prep is a new growing public charter school in downtown Des Moines committed to achieving exceptional outcomes for students: where they own and drive their learning and love their school experience. Our model combines rigorous college preparatory academics and a robust student-centered approach to instruction. We believe students learn best when they are known well, challenged deeply, and supported fully.

Des Moines Prep opened in 2025 and serves grades 8–9, expanding to serve grades 7–12 in the coming years. Our school emphasizes agency, purpose, and preparation for the future, giving students opportunities to explore college and career pathways and pursue their ambitions in a supportive, close-knit environment.

About the Role: Substitute Teacher

The Building Substitute Teacher provides consistent, reliable coverage for teacher absences, ensuring that learning continues smoothly without disruption. Their familiarity with the school's routines, students, and culture will allow them to step in seamlessly and support both staff and scholars. The Des Moines Prep Building Substitute Teacher will be the first person we call to help provide coverage for regular teachers when they are experiencing illness, maternity leave, or other absence reasons during the school year.

About the Logistics

Compensation:
- $100 per half day of coverage (4 hours)
- $200 per full day of coverage (8 hours)
Daily Hours: Teachers and staff are expected to be present for core hours of 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM during the school year from August to May
Scheduling: Building Subs will engage in a two-step interview process that includes a screening call and a site visit with School Leaders. If selected to substitute teach with Des Moines Prep, substitute teachers would be contacted on an as-needed basis to cover for absences.
Benefits: This is an independent contractor position. As such, traditional employment benefits such as health insurance and retirement contributions are not included. Compensation is structured to reflect the nature of the role.

Implement the primary teacher's lesson plans and begin instruction right away
Organize and prepare all necessary classroom materials

Deliver curriculum content effectively from the first day in the role
Consistently demonstrate professional and effective teaching practices
Apply a solid understanding of school policies and procedures

Education/Certification Requirements

Candidates must meet Iowa Substitute Teaching requirements and hold an active Substitute Authorization or Substitute License. Candidates will also be prompted to complete fingerprinting and background check via Iowa Fieldprint, with associated fees.

Qualifications

Experience with in-classroom management and general teaching experience
Experience as a classroom teacher or "regular classroom teacher" preferred
Excellent interpersonal skills with a proven ability to maintain professionalism and tact in high-stress situations
Organization skills that lead to seamless paper and resource organization within classrooms
