Discontinuance of Position. If a job-share position is eliminated by action of the School Board, the teachers sharing the position shall be subject to the Layoffs and Recall provisions of the Master Agreement. If the job-share position is discontinued at the request of both the job-share teachers, the teachers will be placed in accordance with the Voluntary Transfer provisions of the Master Agreement. If one of the job-share teachers leaves or elects to take a full-time position and there is no candidate acceptable to the District to fill the job-share position, the position shall revert to full time, and the remaining teacher may, in accordance with the Layoffs and Recall provisions of the Master Agreement, be offered the full-time position, except when another teacher has a priority claim to the position under provisions of this Master agreement (e.g., Layoff and Recall provisions, returning from leave).
Discontinuance of Position. In the event that it is necessary for the District to reduce the number of Principals covered by this Agreement, the work force shall be reduced in accordance with Minnesota Statute 122A.40, Subd. 10.
Discontinuance of Position. If an administrative position is eliminated, and if the administrator does not qualify for any existing administrative vacancies she/he shall be assigned to a teaching position for which he/she is qualified by seniority and training. Seniority as a teacher will be based on total District experience. Other contractual rights as an administrator will be forfeited.
Discontinuance of Position. In the event that it is necessary for the District to reduce the number of employees covered by this Agreement, the work force shall be reduced as determined by the Superintendent considering performance, licensure areas, and years of service in a similar position. The School Board may place on unrequested leave of absence such instructional program supervisors, without pay or fringe benefits, as may be necessary because of discontinuance of position, lack of pupils, financial limitations, or merger of classes. Such leave of absence may continue for a period of three (3) years, after that the right to reinstatement shall terminate; provided the instructional program supervisor’s right to reinstatement shall also terminate if the supervisor fails to file with the director of human resources, by April 1st of each year, a written statement requesting reinstatement.
