Common use of Class Coverage Clause in Contracts

Class Coverage. 1. A secondary principal (or her or his designee) may assign secondary employees who offer to cover classes for employees who are required to be absent from class as authorized by the building administrator. In the event no employees volunteer to cover classes, and after all reasonable good faith efforts to obtain a guest employee have failed, then the principal or designee may require an employee to cover a class, provided, no employee may be required to cover a class again unless every other employee with the same preparation time has also been required to cover a class as often as the employee who is being required to cover a class again. A rotation schedule should be created and posted at each building. 2. Secondary employees assigned to cover classes will receive notice of the assignment 24 hours in advance, except in cases of emergency, and payment shall be made at each employee’s per diem, at an hourly rate of one day of the employee’s base contract divided by 7.5 hours, for each period covered. For the purpose of computing compensation, covering a class for 25 minutes or more shall be considered as covering the class for a full period. For the purpose of computing compensation, class periods of 50 to 60 minutes shall be considered as 1.0 hours in length. An emergency for the purpose of this section will be defined as a situation in which the absent employee has provided less than 24 hours’ advance notice to the substitute office and the school, and in such situations the employee assigned to cover the class will be given notice as much in advance as possible. 3. When an elementary classroom does not have an assigned substitute (guest teacher), an elementary principal (or designee) may assign elementary classroom teachers or specialists to cover a classroom on a rotating basis created and posted at each building. Elementary class coverage will be reimbursed at per diem for any missed planning period and at $35.00 per hour for every hour after that. Class coverage will be documented on an extra pay time sheet. This documentation will reflect the time worked beyond the contracted day to complete regularly assigned duties equal to the amount of time spent covering a classroom. Occasionally, employees on special assignment may also be assigned to provide elementary classroom coverage and will be compensated as stated above. 4. In the event that students are reassigned to other certificated elementary classrooms, the receiving staff members will be reimbursed according to the percentage of the students added to their classroom. (Example: A second grade classroom does not have a substitute and that classroom is divided between the remaining two second grade classrooms. Each receiving employee would get half of $210 if the students remained with her/him for the full day.) Specialists providing services for these larger classes will receive class coverage pay when they are in overload.
