Seven out of every ten daily vacancies are going uncovered. At Northeast High School in philadelphia, students and teachers are enduring their piece of a districtwide crisis. There simply arent enough substitutes to cover the gaps for ill and absent teachers. Its really a travesty for those kids and for the teachers.

For the first time this year, the School District outsourced its substitute staffing to a new jersey firm called source for teachers.
