Reduction in Teachers. Section 1. When reductions in the total teaching staff are under consideration, the Board shall so inform the Association at least thirty (30) days prior to a final decision. The Association shall be given an opportunity to suggest reasonable alternatives to reductions. Within fifteen (15) days of notification, the Association shall submit its suggestions in writing and the Board or its representative shall respond in writing within fifteen (15) days of receipt of the Association's suggestions. The Board agrees that it will not implement a reduction in force until after bargaining in good faith has been completed.
Reduction in Teachers. If the teacher so requests, certification of approval of such leave will be provided to TRS so the teacher may obtain credit under TRS provisions at his/her own expense.

Reduction in Teachers. Severance Pay Certified tenured teachers shall receive the sum of Fifty and 00/100 Dollars ($50.00) for each year of full-time service to the Central City Elementary District. Such payment shall be remitted to the teacher no later than the fifth (5th) day of the following school year. Teachers may participate in the District's health insurance program subject to the terms and conditions of the insurance plan during the period of recall provided they prepay the monthly cost of the insurance premium.
Reduction in Teachers. Teachers shall be laid off in accordance with the School Code of Illinois. Seniority rights will be observed when equal qualifications are established in accordance with the School Code of Illinois. In the event a tie exists in the seniority of two (2) or more certified tenured teachers, the following criteria shall be used in priority order to determine the reduction-in-force:
Reduction in Teachers. 14.1 If the Board determines that a reduction in the number of teachers employed is necessary, or that a particular type of teaching service should be discontinued, the Board shall remove teachers from within the category of position to be reduced or discontinued, based on each teachers’ placement in 1 of 4 performance evaluation groups in the “sequence of honorable dismissal list.” Teachers shall be honorably dismissed in group order (i.e., 1-4); with teachers in Group 1 the first to be honorably dismissed and teachers in Group 4 the last to be honorably dismissed. From amongst those teachers in Group 1, the District shall have the discretion to honorably dismiss in any sequence. Within Group 2, the sequence of dismissal shall be based upon the average performance evaluation ratings, with the teachers with the lowest average performance evaluation rating dismissed first. In the event two or more teachers in Group 2 have an identical average evaluation rating, the teacher with a shorter length of continuing service (i.e., less seniority) shall be honorably dismissed first. Within Groups 3 or 4, the teacher with a shorter length of continuing service (i.e., less seniority) shall be honorably dismissed first. If seniority between two teachers is identical, then the teacher with the least amount of educational credit will be released first. The teacher(s) with the least amount of education shall be first released.
