Caseload Reduction Procedure. Whenever a caseload must be reduced to honor caseload limits, a caseload will be reduced by re-assigning whichever students have been on the teacher’s caseload the shortest amount of time. However, the teacher (in consultation with Special Education Administration) may indicate a more appropriate solution in writing, which the District may then instead use to right-size the caseload.
Caseload Reduction Procedure. Whenever a caseload must be reduced to honor limits, reduction shall re-assign whichever students have been on the teacher’s caseload the shortest amount of time. However, the teacher (in consultation with Special Education Administration) may indicate a more appropriate solution in writing, which the District may then consider instead in order to right-size the caseload. The case manager will be responsible for informing the District when their caseload reaches (and also when it exceeds) the maximum limit; and the District will initiate the caseload adjustment within five (5) days of receiving notice from the case manager. Caseload reductions shall be for the purpose of caseload-limit compliance, not to reduce caseloads significantly enough to assign the teacher an additional site. Changing a teacher’s site assignment(s) is recognized by the parties as a distinct and separate matter from “caseload reduction.”
