POSITIONS FUNDED THROUGH GRANTS. The School Committee and the Association recognize that from time to time funds may be made available by organizations and/or foundations for specified educational initiatives and/or projects. The parties encourage members of the bargaining unit represented by the MTA to apply for such funds with the understanding on the part of the applicant that any and all such applications which will have a direct impact on any students enrolled in the Millis Public Schools and/or which would directly affect the duties and/or schedules of any bargaining unit employee must be approved by the Superintendent. The School Committee agrees that the Superintendent will, within a reasonable time, inform the MTA President of such applications which he/she would intend to approve in order to determine and fulfill any collective bargaining obligations which might arise should the applied-for funds be granted. The parties agree that where any such grants would create opportunities for income for bargaining unit members that such positions will be posted consistent with Article XII of the collective bargaining agreement. Where any time constraints could serve to make fulfillment of these posting requirements impracticable, the Superintendent will so inform the MTA President in order that alternate arrangements may be made by mutual agreement. It is in any event understood that such position will be awarded to a qualified internal applicant. The position may be posted and filled externally if there is no qualified internal applicant. The parties further agree that the bargaining unit member who is the author of the grant application shall receive 10% of the grant or $5,000, whichever is less, if the grant is received.
