Consideration for Teaching Positions. 1. A school support employee holding a State of Florida teaching certificate, but who is not currently teaching, may apply for a teaching position through the Department of Instructional Staffing. If qualified to teach, the school support employee shall be given special consideration for filling teacher vacancies in the employee’s field of certification before consideration is given to new employees. School support employees shall be considered on the basis of service with M-DCPS, quality of that service, and qualifications for the position being sought. The Office of Human Resources shall maintain a list of all school support employees meeting the Board-prescribed standards for hiring of teachers. Such list shall be made available to administrators responsible for selection of teacher personnel and to the Union, upon request. 2. A school support employee holding a State of Florida teaching certificate may be employed as an interim teacher or probationary teacher. At the end of the interim or probationary teacher assignment, such employee shall be placed in a position similar to the position held prior to taking the teaching position if and where available. If a position is unavailable the employee has recall rights to a school support employee position. The right to return to a school support employee position is waived if the employee is terminated for cause from the interim or probationary teaching assignment.
