Texas State Requirements

Education Requirements

Texas substitute teacher requirements vary by district. Some districts require a bachelor's degree, while others accept candidates with a high school diploma or GED plus at least 48 semester hours of college credit. Districts set their own minimum education thresholds, so candidates should verify requirements with the specific district where they wish to substitute.

Background Check

All substitute teachers in Texas must undergo a criminal background check, including fingerprinting processed through the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) and the FBI. Texas law also requires districts to check candidates against the state's registry of persons not eligible for employment in public schools.

Age Requirements

Substitute teachers in Texas must be at least 18 years of age. Government-issued photo identification is required to verify age and identity during the application and hiring process.

Application Process

The application process in Texas is managed entirely at the district level. Many districts contract with third-party staffing agencies such as ESS or Kelly Education to manage substitute teacher recruitment and placement. Candidates typically complete an online application, submit transcripts, and attend an orientation before being approved.
