All members who are suspended shall be given written notification at least thirty (30) calendar days prior to the effective date of the suspension. 4. Contract suspensions will normally be effective at the start of a school year unless the suspensions are for reasons of a return to duty of a regular teacher after a leave of absence or territorial changes affecting the district.
