Duty Year Day. SCHOOL CALENDAR Building representatives including one (1) JMEA member and one (1) administrator from each school will be asked to serve on the district calendar committee. When appropriate the JMEA calendar committee representatives will survey their membership in December prior to winter break to receive input on next year’s calendar. The committee shall be advisory in nature. For the 2020-2021 school year there will be a maximum of one hundred eighty-seven (187) contract days. Teachers shall be in their assigned buildings for a minimum of seven (7) hours and fifty (50) minutes daily. Required daily schedules for teachers in each building will be set by the Building Principals, after consultation with staff, to best fit the needs of the building’s students and staff. The schedule, once established, shall remain consistent throughout the year. Additionally, Building Principals may, at their discretion with forty-eight (48) hours advance notice, extend this time by an additional fifteen (15) minutes one day in each two (2) week period, or twice in any one calendar month. Parent-teacher evening conferences, as scheduled on the master calendar, will equate to one-half (½) day of work in the one hundred eighty-seven (187) day teacher contract. A maximum of the equivalent of four (4) half days will be granted. Should any one hundred eighty-eight (188) day contract or greater number of days be established, compensation will be negotiated from the one hundred eighty-seven (187) day base.
