Maintenance and Filing of Certification/Licensure. Each teacher must comply with the teacher certification/licensure laws of Ohio and the regulations as determined by the state and local Board of Education. A valid Ohio certificate/license, as appropriate, must be filed in the Central Office to legalize payment of salary. Proper certification/licensure status is the responsibility of each certified/licensed employee. Evidence of such must be on file in the Human Resources Department. As a courtesy the Human Resources Department will continue to notify teachers regarding certification/licensure status. Copies of the notification letter will be sent to the Union. Members of the bargaining unit shall be responsible for filing with the Human Resources Department all certificates and licenses issued to the member by the Ohio Department of Education. No right or privilege concerning reduction of staff shall be asserted by a member of the bargaining unit under any newly issued certificate or license not on file as of March 20 of the school year that a reduction in staff takes place.
