Available positions include substitute teachers, substitute custodians and substitute child nutrition program workers.

Russellville City Schools hired Appleton to provide Substitute Staffing Services for the new school year.

Substitutes currently serving Russellville City Schools will need to complete an application online in order to continue accepting assignments during the 2016-2017 school year.

Applicants who are currently not substituting and who are interested must obtain:

  • A valid Alabama substitute teaching license, which requires a nonrefundable fee of $30 payable to the Alabama State Department of Education.
