The basic consideration in the assignment of professional personnel will be the needs of students and the instructional program.
Therefore, the policy of the Board is that personnel be assigned on the basis of their qualifications, the needs of the school system, and their expressed desires. When it is not possible to meet all of these conditions, an employee will be assigned first in accordance with school system needs-where administration feels the employee is most qualified to serve, and second, regarding the employee.
It is the responsibility of the Superintendent to assure that all schools are well staffed with effective teachers.
Within an individual school, a building administrator will have the right to assign classes and courses, provided this is done with full regard to the teacher’s area of certification and Board policies. He/She will also recommend to the Superintendent assignments to extra-pay positions in his/her school.
A transfer, reassignment, or special assignment may be requested by an employee, and will be given due consideration in accordance with the provisions of this policy.
