Discipline Disciplinary grievances will be initiated at the level at which the disputed action was taken.
School discipline The Parents accept the authority of the Headmaster and of other members of staff on the Headmaster's behalf to take all reasonable disciplinary or preventative action necessary to safeguard and promote the welfare of the Pupil and the School community as a whole. The School's policies on behaviour and discipline current at the time and published on the School website apply to all pupils at the School and at all times when the Pupil is in or at school, (including when engaged in online or remote learning), representing the School or wearing School uniform, travelling to or from School, on School-organised trips or associated with the School at any time. The policies shall also apply at all times and places in circumstances where failing to apply this policy may affect the health, safety or wellbeing of a member of the School community or a member of the public, have repercussions for the orderly running of the School or bring the School into disrepute.

Discipline for Cause No member shall be reduced in pay or position, suspended, removed, or reprimanded except for just cause. In the event of a grievance, employees shall appeal disciplinary actions which result in time-off without pay, or removal to Step Three of the grievance procedure within seven (7) calendar days after written notice of such action is served upon the affected member. Probationary removals or reductions are not appealable to the grievance procedure. Employees given written reprimands of record may, upon request, meet with the Chief Deputy and/or the Sheriff (or designee) to discuss the discipline. This meeting can be conducted with or without Union representation. The results of such meetings shall not be subject to appeal through the grievance procedure. If a member disagrees with the verbal or written reprimand, the member may write a memorandum to the Sheriff explaining the reason(s) for the disagreement. The memorandum will be attached to the reprimand.
Formal Discipline Continued unsatisfactory behaviors, or committing offenses of such serious nature that requires immediate expulsion from work, are subject to the formal discipline process. Formal discipline may consist of any one or combination of the following:
Disciplinary Grievance If a grievance alleging that a disciplinary action (reduction in base pay, demotion, involuntary transfer of more than 50 miles by highway, suspension, or dismissal) was taken without cause is not resolved at Step 2, the PBA may appeal the grievance to arbitration within 15 days after receipt of the decision at Step 2, provided the Step 2 decision is received on or before the due date.
DISCIPLINE OF TEACHERS A. The Board may adopt rules and regulations not in conflict with the terms of this Agreement concerning the discipline of teachers.
Disciplinary Grievances If the grievance is not resolved at Step 2, the Union may file a request for mediation with the Public Employment Relations Commission (PERC) in accordance with WAC 000-00-000, with a copy to the Office of Financial Management/SHR/Labor Relations Section (OFM/SHR/LRS) and the Human Resources Office within fifteen (15) days of receipt of the Step 2 decision. In addition to all other filing requirements, the request must include a copy of the grievance and all previous responses.
Discipline Procedure To ensure that there is no misunderstandings when discipline is to be administered the Parties shall adhere to the following procedure in each instance of discipline.
Discipline Records An employee who goes for a period of twenty-four (24) working months without any disciplinary action shall be considered to have a clear record for the purpose of substantiating future disciplinary action or for use in arbitration hearings. At the written request of an employee, any report in his/her personnel file, excluding assessments or observations, that may be considered or construed by the employee to be reprimanding, disciplinary or derogatory will be placed in an envelope and labeled “not relevant for disciplinary purposes” and returned to the personnel file. This would be done only after two consecutive years (24 months) with no disciplinary action. Any record of disciplinary action or derogatory report which has been in the file longer than two years, or any reference in the file to an incident that occurred more than two years ago, may not be used as evidence or testimony against the employee. Cases of disciplinary action which was the result of moral turpitude (gross violation of standards of moral conduct, vileness—an act involving moral turpitude is considered intentionally evil, making the act a crime) or a pattern of allegations of child endangerment that results in disciplinary action by the district are exempted from the two year moratorium.
