The statewide minimum daily substitute teacher salary for 2013-2014 is $170.76. Through OSTA’s efforts, the salary was set in law in 1975 to keep pace with Oregon’s beginning teachers. Over the years we have added a minimum half day and a long term salary after ten days. Please join OSTA and support our efforts on behalf of all substitute teachers in Oregon. The requirement of recent teaching experience (180 days) to renew a Basic, Standard, Continuing, or Initial II license has been repealed. You must now complete 25 hours per year of continuing professional development. If you have a Substitute Teaching License, you must complete 10 hours of PDUs per year. A form on which to document your PDUs and a list of approved activities may be obtained from the website www.tspc.state.or.us. Renewal application will be sent to TSPC with your $100 application fee. You will send your PDU documentation to the appropriate ESD and pay $25 for the evaluation.
