Transition to Edustaff for TPS Substitutes

Posted on 07/31/2026

Topeka Public Schools is excited to announce that we have partnered with Edustaff, LLC to provide contracted services for our substitute teachers and substitute paraprofessionals. Several factors were considered in our decision to make this transition, most importantly our confidence in Edustaff's ability to deliver the high level of service and support that both our district and our substitutes deserve.

Additional information is included below, which outlines the expanded support, resources, and employment opportunities available through Edustaff.

To continue serving as a substitute teacher or substitute paraprofessional for Topeka Public Schools, all current substitutes must complete the employment transition process with Edustaff. This includes attending one of the required Rollover Meetings, where you will complete the necessary employment paperwork and finalize your transition to Edustaff.

Substitutes who are currently scheduled to begin assignments at the start of the school year must complete this process in order to remain eligible to serve in Topeka Public Schools.

For questions regarding the transition process, please contact:
