Scoot takes special care to get to know our teachers before employing them. That's why all our teachers have:
Completed a phone screen
Passed a one to one behavioral interview (in person whenever possible)
Provided three professional reference checks with at least one from a current or recent supervisor
Cleared criminal background check according to state requirements (e.g., DOJ & FBI Live Scan) with ongoing arrest notifications
Cleared any medical screening according to state requirements (e.g., TB testing)
Completed mandatory training on topics such as mandated reporting, bloodborne pathogens, and sexual harassment
Had their state teacher license(s) searched and cleared
In addition to pre-employment screening, each Scoot substitute is supervised by a consultant (often a former teacher) who manages their performance and provides mentoring so our subs can grow their skill sets and provide better learning outcomes.
