Why it Matters to You
Special education isn’t a department to us — it’s our entire company
There’s nothing more frustrating than a substitute who doesn’t understand the unique needs of a special education classroom. That’s why we built an entire company around one purpose: supporting schools like yours with professionals who get it.
Special Education Specialists
Every substitute we place has a minimum of 6 months of experience in a special education setting. These aren’t general educators trying to adapt — they’re specialists who have spent years walking into classrooms like yours, ready to meet students where they are.
Finally — a staffing partner that understands the difference between general ed and special ed. Their substitutes walk in ready, confident, and knew how to support our students from day one.
While other companies treat special education as an afterthought, it’s all we do.
We’ve supported special education programs for over 20 years, placing thousands of teachers, therapists, and paraprofessionals across the country.
Substitute Management Platform
A friendly, streamlined dashboard designed to make your day easier, helping you manage daily and weekly sub coverage with less stress, quickly submit requests, connect directly with the Spindle team and subs, adjust shifts in real time, and assign your favorite subs all in one place.
