School Disbandment Sample Clauses

School Disbandment. If a school is scheduled to close and students from the closed school are to be disbursed among multiple schools (e.g. Attica Elementary School students being distributed between Maple Grove and ▇▇▇▇▇ Elementary School upon closing) teachers assigned to the closing school will be staffed for the subsequent school year as follows after tentative assignments are made as referenced in Article 10, A, Step 4, and prior to the posting referenced in Article 10, B, 2. (1) Each such affected teacher will have the opportunity to bump the least senior teacher in the district teaching the same grade level or equivalent special education assignment. A vacancy at the same grade level or in an equivalent special education assignment is considered the very least senior teacher. If there are multiple affected teachers at a grade level or in an equivalent special education assignment, the more senior of the affected teachers will have the opportunity to select among the positions of the corresponding number of less senior teachers. For example, if two (2) fourth grade teachers are affected the most senior of the two will have the first opportunity to select a position occupied by the two least senior fourth grade teachers in the district. If there is no less senior teacher in the district teaching at the affected teacher’s grade level, the teacher will be considered Displaced Staff to be Assigned a Position.
