Teacher’s Preparation Period. A teacher's preparation period is considered to be a part of the normal school workday, and as such, a teacher should be able to devote this time to lesson preparation, professional conferences and other functions leading to more effective teaching. Therefore, no regularly assigned teacher shall be used as a substitute teacher unless it is a scheduled part of the total teaching hours, except when a failure of a substitute to arrive on schedule or the inability of the Administration to secure a substitute occurs. In such cases when a regular teacher has been assigned to substitute during a preparation period, the teacher shall be compensated as specified in Appendix A. Each teacher will substitute during his/her preparation period on the first two (2) occasions requested without compensation.
