Three-Stage Grievance Procedure. 1. Any teacher who believes that he/she has a justifiable grievance may request an informal meeting with his/her principal for the purpose of arriving at a mutual satisfactory resolution of the grievance. In the event a group of teachers is involved, a small representative group of such teachers may be present, if they so desire. The principal shall schedule an informal meeting with the teacher within three (3) days after the receipt of a request thereof. Any grievance which the parties are unable to resolve informally shall be presented by the teacher in writing (formal grievance) to the principal. The formal grievance shall be dated and signed by the grieving teacher. Within five (5) days after receipt of a formal grievance by the principal, the principal shall submit his/her decision in writing, together with the supporting reasons thereof, to the Association President for review. Within two (2) days, the Association President will respond to the principal, and the decision will be sent to the grievant.
