BERLIN — The Berlin Board of Education approved a measure last Thursday that would provide an incremental sign-on bonus of $600 for a year-round substitute teaching position, as a way to incentivize potential substitutes to apply for the position.

The approval of the sign-on bonus came after discussion regarding difficulties the school district is having in recruiting and retaining substitute teachers.
