The Calexico Unified School District has implemented the Absence Management System (AESOP/Frontline), which assigns/monitors substitute assignments. This system is designed to either call Substitutes to fill teacher absences, and/or allows Substitute teachers to be pro-active and search or hunt for assignments as soon as they become available on the website. Substitutes may also use Frontline to decline or cancel assignments, change profile, etc. Teachers use this Absence Management System to report absences, request specific substitutes, etc.
