How Senya Started

Senya was founded with the vision of revolutionizing the substitute teacher industry. Our founders recognized the challenges faced by schools in finding qualified substitutes and sought to create a platform that would streamline the process and help keep classrooms happy.
Frowny Face

No Subs = No Bueno

Substitute teaching shortages nationwide have led to teachers being unable to take time off. This can contribute to increased feelings of stress, increased burnout, and increased employee attrition.
Smiling Face

Say ‘Adios’ to Sub Shortages

Senya brings schools and substitutes together with a platform that enables schools to post jobs that substitutes can be notified of and accept. Gone are the days of wasting time playing phone tag, just post the jobs on Senya and focus on what really matters - teaching.
