Board Policy. 28.1 The parties recognize that many Board policies, regulations and practices have a direct impact on the conditions under which teachers must carry out their duties. Though the development and implementation of these policies are the responsibility of the Board, for which they are held accountable under the School Act, it is the desire of the Board to obtain meaningful input from teachers, as professionals in such development. Towards this end, the parties agree to the following:
a. The Board shall not alter existing policies, or introduce new policies, affecting teachers, without first ensuring that the Association has had adequate notice of the Board's intent.
i. When possible notice of intent to change or introduce new policies shall be given in written form to the Association not less than sixty (60) days prior to a hearing.

If a substitute is required, the educator shall report the absence through the approved substitute system. Book POLICIES Number GBZAB Section G - Certified Staff Policies Status Active Title Qualifications of Educators Educators must meet licensure/certification requirements for the area in which they practice. Educator candidates must also hold or show proof of eligibility for Kansas licensure/certification in the area or level at which they propose to practice. When the license/certificate necessary for the educator’s position is issued by a state agency other than the Kansas Department of Education (KSDE), the District will reimburse educators the renewal cost of that license/certificate after one year of initial employment.

If a copy of a renewed license/certificate has not been filed in the Human Resources Division by the license/certificate expiration date, Human Resources staff will contact the KSDE or other appropriate state licensing agency. The purpose of this contact will be to determine if all license/certificate renewal and application materials are on file with the KSDE or other appropriate state licensing agency. For a staff member who does not have all renewal and application materials on file with the KSDE or other appropriate state licensing agency, a district administrator will establish a conference with the staff member. Following the conference a recommendation may be made to the superintendent that the staff member be temporarily suspended. The duration of this recommended suspension will be until all license/certificate application renewal materials are on file with the KSDE or other appropriate state licensing agency. This suspension will be without compensatio...
