Special Education Aides. In the event a special education aide is assigned to a position for which the need no longer exists midyear, the Board shall not lay off the aide midyear but shall instead reassign the aide to other work within that classification with the same number of hours. The specific location or duties for the reassignment are subject to the Board’s discretion except that the duties must fall within the special education aide job description. The special education aide must apply for an open position for the following year. The same number of hours are not guaranteed. If the aide does not apply for an open aide position, the aide may be placed in a position at the Board’s discretion. Special education aides may be immediately reduced by the Board when a student or students with a disability to whom such aides are assigned cease to attend in the District, graduate, are deemed no longer in need of assistance per the IEP team, or are otherwise unavailable to access such services. The reduction in force provisions in the Agreement are modified with respect to the position of these special education aides to the extent that a special education aide so displaced may not automatically displace the least senior special education aide. In that case, the Administration may prevent such bumping if the best interests of the affected student(s) with a disability so dictate. Such a determination by the Administration will be for good and sufficient reasons and not be arbitrary or capricious and will only proceed after consultation with the Association President, who will be provided with appropriate data regarding the reasons underlying the determination. Special education aides who decline to bump into another special education aide position and/or who are otherwise displaced as the result of a reduction will be given all other rights accorded other employees in the reduction in force provisions of this Agreement. Any displacement due to a reduction in force will not take effect until the following school year to ensure no disruption to the student during the current school year.
