  Case: Substitute Teacher During Emergency Drills
A substitute teacher came in and subbed for one of the first-grade classrooms. We had an active assailant drill where we were told that it was a closed campus situation and that we could continue instruction but were not allowed to leave the building. I walked by the classroom and noticed that the sub had the class up against the wall and the lights off. I went up to her and calmly and nicely explained that since it was a closed campus situation, we could continue with the instruction. Still, the sub told me in a rather rude tone that no one told her that was the case and that if they wanted it done a certain way then they need to inform her, but until then she would be doing things her way. Any thoughts or tips?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Bring the issue to administration, not only so that she can be 'properly' informed, but also due to the unnecessary rudeness to you. Being unprofessional directly to one in your profession can be an underlying sign of how they act to the students they substitute. It could be something you could help, could be nothing, couldn't hurt to talk to administration about this incident.
