Common use of Home Base Clause in Contracts

Home Base. At or before the beginning of each program year or as soon thereafter as is practicable, the Employer will establish assignments or assignment areas for home base teachers. At such time as assignments or assignment areas are established, home base teachers will be provided opportunity to state a preference or preferences to particular assignments or assignment areas or modifications in those assignments or assignment areas. Thereafter, assignments will be made by the Employer in its discretion. Changes in assignments or reassignments may be made by the Employer during the program year as circumstances may warrant in its discretion. The establishment of assignments or assignment areas of home base teachers are not subject to grievance and may be made in the sole discretion of the Employer, but this does not preclude the matter from being discussed at labor-management committee meetings pursuant to Article XV, Section 1. Preferences may, but are not required to, be followed.
