Time assigned through this procedure shall not be considered continuing hours for the purpose of assigning hours for the coming school year if such time is assigned after October 15th, assigned due to a class size remedy, or other conditions of a temporary nature. This provision shall not apply if such time is assigned from the building preference pool.
