Section 8.8. 2.1 2 When the number of available para educator hours allocated to a building is reduced, the 3 assignment of hours within the building shall be based upon the following considerations: 4 the needs of student(s) being served, current or previous work with particular student(s), 5 the needs of the program, skills, training and experience of the staff members, scheduling 6 factors, and the ability to provide continuity of support. When two or more para educators 7 are substantially equal with regard to the above listed factors, the assignment of hours will 8 be allocated on the basis of seniority, provided the reduction in hours exceeds 15 minutes 9 or more per day.
