What Substitute Management System Does

Substitute Management System is a web platform used by school districts, school administrators, teachers, and substitute teachers to manage day-to-day staff absences. Teachers submit absence requests, administrators review and approve them, and available substitutes (or in-house staff) are matched and assigned to open positions — with automatic email and push notifications at every step.

Districts may optionally connect a Google account to unlock additional features: syncing absences to a Google Calendar, sending notification emails through Gmail, and generating substitute lesson plan documents in Google Docs/Drive using AI. These Google-connected features are entirely optional and are described in detail below.
