Building Leadership Team. Effective with the 1991-1992 school year, a School Faculty Council may become a Building Leadership Team. The process for converting a School Faculty Council to a Building Leadership Team involves three steps:
1. The principal, the Faculty Council, or a majority of the certificated staff requests a presentation on the building leadership teams from the commission on site based management.
2. The certificated staff of the building shall have the opportunity to attend a commission presentation on building leadership teams.
3. The certificated staff votes by secret ballot and by a two-thirds margin of all certificated staff assigned to the building approves converting the School Faculty Council to a Building Leadership Team. A Building Leadership Team is characterized by the one-person-one-vote principle, with the building principal being a voting member of the Team with one vote. The Building Representative and the PTA President shall also be members of the Building Leadership Team. An additional parent representative may also be selected by the Building Leadership Team to serve as a team member. The Building Leadership Team is to participate in shared decision making, a concept in which teachers and the principal work together to make building level decisions. The partnership established by the Building Leadership Team must protect and guarantee the interests of the teachers and the administrator(s). The Building Leadership Team shall collectively assume responsibility for building level decisions within the limits of law, state minimum standards, board policy, budget, and professional ethics. The Building Leadership Team’s authority is limited to those decisions that would ordinarily be made at the building level. The Building Leadership Team may reserve to itself or designate to the principal specific types of decisions. Where a decision is not reserved or designated, the principal shall retain responsibility in that area. The building principal shall be able to appeal any Building Leadership Team decision that he/she believes is a violation of the limits of the law, state minimum standards, board policy, budget, or professional ethics to a committee composed of the Superintendent or his/her designee and the President or his/her designee. If a mutually acceptable decision cannot be reached within thirty (30) days of the date of the appeal, the principal’s appeal shall be forwarded to the Board for action within fifteen (15) work days or at the next regula...
Building Leadership Team. 19.02.1 Within each school building there shall be a Building Leadership Team (BLT) consisting of Professional Staff Members assigned to such school building. Such Building Leadership Team shall have among its members: The Building Principal or Assistant Principal, a DEA-elected union representative, and teachers who represent all grade bands and content. Professional Staff Members interested in being on the BLT should submit a letter of interest to the Principal and to the DEA-elected union representative. The members of the Building Leadership Team will be selected by application after joint review and agreement by both the Building Principal and the DEA elected BLT Representative no later than 15 days after the commencement of the school year. Per ODE guidelines, the BLT will be small enough to enable efficient communication and coordination but large enough to represent all aspects of the building.
