Onboarding
Receive a Texas Education Agency (TEA) Fast-Pass for obtaining your fingerprints. If you have completed the fingerprinting process with another school district, we will let you know if you do not have to fingerprint.
Senate Bill 9, also known as the "Fingerprinting Bill", was signed into law by Governor Perry in the fall of 2007. This bill requires that all substitutes undergo a national criminal history record information review by the Texas Education Agency (TEA). Therefore, before you can be employed as a substitute in Georgetown ISD, you will be required to fingerprint.
Note: You will be required to pay the fees associated with the fingerprinting process. The cost ranges from $41.00 to $43.00 depending on the method of payment.
Upon receipt of the I-9 documents and confirmed fingerprinting results, the required onboarding online forms will be emailed to you for completion.
Once you complete the online forms, an email will be sent to you with further information on how to sign up for a Substitute Orientation.
Attend a substitute orientation. (Note: Substitutes are required to work 3 days per semester in order to remain active in our system)
