The teacher’s instructional and supervision/duty time shall be scheduled by the principal (or his/her designee) and instructional leaders. The time that is not instructional, supervision/duty, or lunch shall be considered professional planning time for use by the teacher at his/her discretion. Adopted: 07/05 Revised: 08/07 11.5 ELEMENTARY PREPARATION TIME
11.5.1 In recognition of the need for adequate planning for all 60%+ teachers, continued emphasis shall be placed on developing weekly schedules which allow each elementary teacher approximately 225 minutes per week for planning purposes (100% contract=225 minutes for planning for 60%-99% contracts, planning time is prorated based on % of contract). Efforts will be made wherever possible to distribute this planning time to allow for an average of 45 minutes each day, exclusive of lunch, for planning. It is understood that in some buildings it may not be possible to schedule this time each and every day, but building principals are encouraged to make every attempt to reach that objective.
11.5.2 Each 100% contracted elementary teacher shall be guaranteed a minimum of 225 minutes of preparation/planning time per week (100% contract= 225 minutes for planning, for 60%-99% contracts, planning time is prorated based on % of contract). Further, every effort will be made to give each teacher planning time every day. Calculation of the 225 minutes planning time is not to include before school nor the 30 minutes per day of uninterrupted lunchtime. No time period of less than 25 continuous minutes shall be counted as part of the 225 minutes total, except for 15-minute segments attached to the 30-minute uninterrupted lunch...
