Vendors must provide a complete system that specializes in supporting K-12 institutions with providing substitute teachers where WCPSS school leaders and staff members can post absences in their school daily or in advance of an absence that requires a substitute teacher. The proposed system must provide: ● a modern user interface with clear navigation and guidance prompts. ● the ability to identify which staff member(s) are out, when they will be out (by hour or day), and any pertinent information the substitute teacher should know prior to accepting the job. ● functionality to differentiate various positions and indicate if there is a need for a substitute teacher or not based on school district methods such as employee type. ● configuration on the position type itself regarding the replacement attribute requirements, including the ability to build this logic on each employee profile as needed. ● the ability to enter mass absences for multiple employees. ● the ability to partially fill absences automatically without the need to manually intervene, "split" absences, or ask an administrator or an employee to enter multiple absences in the system. Functionality should be provided to allow a substitute teacher to accept part of an absence and other substitute teachers the ability to accept the remaining parts of an absence.
