Between September. 1st and June 30th, all certificated staff shall call a telephone answering service between 6 p.m. and 6:30 a.m. to report unavail- ability for work. Repeated failure to comply with the above mentioned requirements may constitute an illegal absence, which, on a case by case basis, the certificated staff member’s immediate supervisor will respond to with appropriate action. Once a certificated staff member has reported unavailability, it shall be the responsibility of the administration to arrange for a substitute whenever possible. It shall not be necessary to provide sub- stitutes for guidance counselors.
