However, it must be borne in mind that there must be, at all times, sufficient staff on duty to ensure effective functioning of all departments within an Agency.
CONFERENCES AND TRAVEL. The District will pay or reimburse the Director for actual, reasonable, and necessary expenses associated with the Director’s travel to and from, and attendance at, professional conferences and meetings, provided that the Director’s attendance is required or authorized in writing by the Superintendent in advance. The Superintendent retains the ultimate discretion to approve or deny any expense on the ground that it is unreasonable.
CONFERENCES AND TRAVEL. A. It shall be the policy of the Board of Education to encourage participation of school personnel in conferences, seminars, workshops and school visitation programs in order to provide opportunities for evaluation and improvement of the total educational offerings of the School District. The Board delegates to the Superintendent the responsibility for determining, within the framework of the allocated funds, the extent to which members of the professional staff shall travel at District expense for the above mentioned purposes. Any teacher receiving approval to participate in any of the above mentioned activities will be reimbursed by the School District as follows: all transportation costs, if commercial transportation is used, or reimbursement at the District rate per mile, if use of a private automobile is approved in advance; all hotel or motel bills; all meals up to a maximum of $22.50 per day; all registration fees, but not to include any area, state or national teacher association or organization dues.
CONFERENCES AND TRAVEL. The District will pay, or reimburse the Business Manager for, all valid, reasonable, and necessary expenses associated with the Business Manager’s travel to and from, and attendance at, in-state and outstate (i.e. national conference) professional conferences and meetings, provided that the following conditions are met: (1) the Business Manager’s attendance is required or authorized in writing by the Superintendent or his/her designee; and (2) the total annual expense is preapproved by the Superintendent or his her designee. Mileage will be reimbursed at the current Board of Education determined rate. To obtain reimbursement, the Business Manager must file itemized expense statements in compliance with School Board policy and law. The School Board retains the ultimate discretion to approve or deny any expense. The Business Manager shall be entitled to attend at least one national, job-relevant professional conference every other year with the approval of the Superintendent. However, the Business Manager, using paid time, may attend national conferences on the “off” year when preapproved by the Superintendent or his/her designee. In this circumstance, the District will pay the cost of registration and meals, while the Business Manager will pay all other conference expenses (i.e. travel and lodging).
