Reassignments and Transfers. For the purpose of this Article, a vacancy occurs when there is a need in an allocated position for a teacher as a replacement as a result of expansion, retirement, or promotion. The Union shall be notified when a vacancy occurs. Notices of vacancies, which occur in classroom positions, shall be promptly posted in each building as is designated. Notices shall be posted for not less than five (5) working days in order to allow individual teachers the opportunity to bid on the position. Positions eliminated because of necessary staff reductions, declining enrollment, or a decision to alter course offerings are not considered vacancies and need not be posted. The Union shall be notified when positions are eliminated. Vacancies shall be filled first by teachers who are certified and qualified. Where applicable, qualified shall mean meeting the standards established by the North Central Association of Schools. The successful bidder will be the person most qualified. If all the applicants are equally qualified, the determining factor for awarding the position will be seniority. Because teacher qualifications in pilot programs may be unique and specialized, the Board reserves the right to deviate from the principle of seniority in awarding these positions. The Board may hire a new teacher if no eligible candidates currently employed have bid on the posted position within the bid period or if no laid off teacher meets the qualifications. This provision also includes the pilot alternative education project for high school students beginning September 1999. All teachers will be members of the Union but their work rules, reporting times for work, teaching schedules, and class offerings will be determined by the Administration in the best interests of these special students. The length of the day and number of days worked must conform to the master agreement. Teachers will participate in alternative programs on a voluntary basis. Vacancies shall be filled as they arise. The Board and the Union recognize that when vacancies occur during the school year, it may be difficult to fill them from within the district with full time positions without undue disruption to existing instructional programs. Therefore, the teacher awarded the posted position shall be notified in a timely manner, but the physical transfer of the successful bidder will occur at the beginning of the next semester. Notices of vacancies occurring when school is not in session shall be sent to all teacher...

Reassignments and Transfers. A teacher is free to ask for a change of assignment or transfer, and such a request, accompanied by a statement of the reasons for the request, should always be submitted in writing to the Superintendent along with a request to be interviewed for any vacant position matching the desired assignment or transfer. Assignment must be acceptable to the receiving principal. A transfer initiated by the administration will be made only after a meeting between affected teacher and the appropriate member of the Superintendent’s staff. When a reduction in the number of teachers in a building is necessary, qualified volunteers from said building shall be the first considered for reassignment; then, reassignment shall be made on the basis of school district needs. Teachers with most district tenure shall receive greater consideration in choice of assignment. (2019-20) The Board of Education and the Association recognize the value of professional growth and experience within the system. Therefore, when a vacancy in a professional area occurs, certified applicants within the system will be given primary consideration. (Teachers who desire a transfer or promotion for the ensuing school year are to file a request with the Office of Human Resources). Career teachers who apply will receive an interview for available teaching positions (2019-20).
