ANNUAL CONTRACT EMPLOYEES. An Annual Contract (AC) employee shall be assessed at least one time each year shall be completed no later than two weeks prior to the last teacher work day of the school year. When PSC/CC teachers are assigned out of field, the administrator shall follow all provisions of FS 1012.42(2). It is the intent of the parties to assure that an environment exists that encourages the success of employees on an annual contract. When an annual contract employee’s job performance does not meet the standards for effective in accordance with the district approved Performance Appraisal System, the NEAT system must be offered by the administrator and implemented. The purpose of NEAT is to assist the annual contract teacher in understanding that a performance deficiency exists and an opportunity to correct the deficiency will be provided. In the event an employee receives a “Needs Improvement” in an indicator, feedback will be provided to assist with correction of the deficiency. In the event an employee receives a “Needs Improvement” in any domain on the Performance Appraisal system, the administrator must offer assistance to improve this area according to the NEAT process provided that the same does not extend the terms of the annual contract.
ANNUAL CONTRACT EMPLOYEES. Employees on annual contract as of July 1, 2014 shall be automatically placed on the performance based salary schedule as required by law. Placement shall be made based on the employee's then current salary from the Grandfather Salary Schedule. Total Salary is calculated as follows: Base Salary (Originally from the Grandfather Salary Schedule) plus all earned performance incentives since July 1, 2015. Any eligible supplements are paid in addition to total salary. Newly Hired Employees – Beginning July 1, 2015, initial salary placement for newly hired teachers on the Performance Based salary schedule shall be determined based on his/her years of full-time teacher experience as set forth in the approved Teacher Salary schedule.

Once established, the teacher shall be placed on Performance Schedule at the established salary.
