Case Study

An ideal partner for last-minute, early childhood educators.

A private Montessori school—for children ages six weeks through six years—faced high turnover and a rise in last-minute absences. The school found a consistent, reliable source for its short- and long-term substitute teachers and classroom aides through Kelly Education.

Prepared. Compliant. Dependable.
