Class Coverages. Employees may be required to use their planning periods to supervise uncovered classes. Situations requiring coverage may include emergencies, substitute shortage, or when a teacher becomes ill at school. If volunteers are not available, employees can be assigned additional coverages. The employer will attempt to equalize the assignment of substitute duties. If an educator is required to give up planning time or scheduled work time to provide classroom coverage, they will be paid base salary hourly rate for that time in 15-minute increments. Arrangement for class coverages for pay shall be made only with prior knowledge and consent of the administrator. This does not include teachers covering for one another for agreed coverages such as for field trips, extra-curricular or curricular events, etc. All coverages must have administrative approval. When acting on assigned duties, by the superintendent or principal, travel expenses shall be reimbursed at the State rate per mile.
