Welcome to West Fargo Public Schools! As a substitute in the West Fargo Public Schools, your role is critically important. Whether you take daily assignments or choose to participate in a long-term role, each time you enter a classroom to teach or assist, you are responsible for our community’s most valuable resource…its children.

The substitute handbook is designed to help you in your efforts to become familiar with our schools and our students. Your responsibility is to replace the regular teacher or paraprofessional and to carry out, to the best of your abilities, the duties and responsibilities of that individual. We trust that each time you substitute, the students will have a meaningful and productive educational experience.

Thank you for your commitment to the education and development of the students of West Fargo Public Schools!

Please monitor your Absence Management account for updates to assignments or web alerts that are released.

We look forward to working with you and greatly appreciate all that you do to make West Fargo Public Schools the district of choice!
