Thanks to Jake Ludington for this answer to my question:
Windows Movie Maker Subtitles
Windows Movie Maker includes subtitles as an option in the built in title tool. The disadvantage is the software only allows you to add on title per clip, so a dialogue intense movie needs to be broken into many small clips in order to get subtitles matched up with every verbal exchange. The other disadvantage is very little control over where the subtitles appear on screen. The only option is at the bottom of the screen with either one or two lines of text.
To create a subtitle in Windows Movie Maker, select the movie clip on the timeline by clicking on it and choose Tools > Titles and Credits from the menu. Choose the option to Add title on the selected clip in the timeline.

I played with this a little more, and have the subtitles working. You can have more than one subtitle per clip. However, you cannot turn the subtitles on and off. So to give a use the flexibility to have the subtitles or not, you actually need to create two versions of the movie.
