Displacement. In those instances where seniority is involved (i.e., when selecting from teachers with comparable evaluations), a teacher affected by a reduction in force will displace another teacher who holds the lowest position on the seniority list in another area of certification/licensure provided he/she holds a valid certification/licensure in the area, unless there is a teacher or teachers in a lower effectiveness rating category, in which case the displaced teacher must bump the least senior teacher in the lowest effectiveness rating category available. However, in this circumstance, such displacement may not occur if the result is to retain a limited contract teacher over a continuing contract teacher.
