Transfers
-
- 1.
Teachers
shall not be transferred during the regular school year to another
building or reassigned to teach another grade level or subject
area without prior consultation between the Teacher and administrator
involved.
-
- 2. In the event
it is necessary to transfer Teachers due to a school closing,
the administration will review the procedures to be used in effectuating
transfers with the CTC. The administration and the CTC will work
together on the release of non-tenured personnel through a District
wide Reduction in Force. However, the Board retains the right
to the final decision.
-
- 3. Displaced tenured
Teachers will have the right to choose, by District seniority,
open positions for which they are qualified to teach, provided
this does not cause another displaced tenured Teacher to lose
a position. The Teacher's right to choose a position pursuant
to this paragraph may be denied by the District for cause. If
so, the District shall provide written reasons for cause if requested
to do so by the Teacher or CTC.
-
- 4. No later than
April 1st each year, representatives from CTC and the Administration
will review the Involuntary Teacher Transfer Procedures and make
any necessary mutual changes. The plan will be distributed to
each employee affected by it prior to implementation.
-
- 5. A Teacher who
is involuntarily transferred shall be informed in writing of
the reason(s) for the transfer. Such notice shall be given as
soon as possible to the Teacher so that he or she can more readily
facilitate the change. The Teacher may, at his/her option, meet
with the principal to discuss the reasons for the transfer. The
Teacher may also request a meeting with the Assistant Superintendent
for Personnel and Human Services to seek further clarification
of the reasons for the transfer. The Teacher being transferred
shall be notified of existing vacancies and shall be given consideration
for such.
-
- 6. Any Teacher involuntarily
transferred because of a reduction in the number of positions
or assignments in a building will have the option to be returned
to the same position if it becomes available within two (2) years
of the involuntary transfer. Any Teacher may request a voluntary
transfer at any time.
-
- 7. Any Teacher involuntarily
assigned to teach a new subject area and/or grade level shall
receive support from the principal and/or supervisors and department
heads.
