Thank you for your interest in being a Guest Teacher. Wichita Public Schools relies on Guest Teachers to provide effective teaching strategies so that student learning continues in the absence of the classroom teacher. Guest teachers play a vital role in student achievement.
Guest teaching is an exciting opportunity! You can:
- Build lasting relationships with students, schools and other teachers.
- Work with students on a part-time or full-time basis.
- Enjoy a flexible schedule.
