Last Revised Date: 02/25/2019 The district may employ part-time employees and employees who will work on a substitute basis in the district. These employees must meet the same qualifications as full-time staff, must be appropriately certified or licensed when necessary, and are subject to the same policies, procedures and other rules as full-time employees. Part-time and substitute employees must satisfactorily complete the same background checks and screenings required of full-time employees.
Substitute Employees
In accordance with law, a majority of the whole Board must approve the employment of all employees, which includes substitute employees. The superintendent will present an initial list of substitute employees to the Board for approval. If substitute employees are added to or removed from the list, the superintendent will submit the revised list or the individual changes to the Board for approval.
Substitute Teachers
Substitute teachers shall be paid at a per day rate established annually by the Board. Substitute teachers who possess a B.S. or higher degree who substitute in the same position for over ten consecutive days will be entitled to the base salary schedule pay rate and expected to perform regular teaching duties, including planning and other instructional routines. The base salary rate of pay shall begin on the 11th consecutive day of substituting in said position.
Part-Time Employees
The superintendent or designee may create part-time employment positions in situations where the district will benefit from employing part-time staff or where full-time staff are not necessary to accomplish the district's goals. The district will employ persons in part-time positions in accordance with the district's regular hiring practices and Board policy.
Employing Retirees
The district may employ persons retired and currently receiving a retirement allowance from a public retirement system, but the district shall consult with that public retirement system before hiring one of their beneficiaries.
Contracts
The contracts of all teachers employed on a regular, part-time basis must explicitly state the percentage of full-time equivalent (FTE) work for which they are contracted so that the district may accurately calculate the accumulation of tenure.
