SchoolFront offers the ability for substitutes to manage their potential and accepted jobs and from a text message.
Once you have been setup as a substitute, your scheduling preferences show you as available, and a substitute job is available, you will get a text message from our automated system containing the jobs that are available within the pre-defined notification window.
Receiving A Text From The System: Potential substitutes will receive a single text message containing all available subbing opportunities.
Accept/Decline A Job: Users can accept or decline a substitute opportunity sent via text message using a response text message rather than requiring them to login to the computer interface or IVR.
Commands: Any of the following commands may be sent in response to the automated system.
Accepted - Texting the sub-finding system with the word "Accepted" prompts the system to send the user a list of all future substitute positions they have accepted.
Available - Texting the sub-finding system with the word "Available" prompts the system to send the user a list of all future substitute positions they are eligible to accept.
Declined - Texting the sub-finding system with the word "Declined" prompts the system to send the user a list of all future substitute positions they have declined.
? - Texting the sub-finding system with the word "?" prompts the system to send the user a list of all possible HELP options.
Accept/Decline Multiple Positions At A Time:
To accept or decline multiple available positions via the automated text system, please use either the ACCEPT or DECLINE command followed by the job numbers.
Example: ACCEPT 12026 14568 89569
The above example would result in accepting the 3 following positions while utilizing only (1) text message.
