Excessing. When a School or Department must reduce the number of employees at that School or Department due to declining student enrollment, budgetary restrictions, reorganization or other reasons as determined by the District, the following provisions will apply:
(a) Employees will be excessed by seniority based on the employee’s length of continuous employment with the District, including approved leaves of absence, and not based on the length of time the employee has been in a particular position.
(b) Excessing will be by job code with the least senior employee being excessed unless a more senior employee in that same job code at that work location volunteers to be excessed. In such cases, the volunteering employee will be excessed and the less senior employee in that job code will not be excessed.
(c) The only exception to this provision is when a less senior employee has received specialized training such as in ESE, Pre-K, etc. and if the more senior employee within that job code at the School or Department declines to be trained in that area. In these cases, the more senior employee who declines to be trained will be excessed and the less senior trained employee will not be excessed.
(d) Employees to be excessed will be notified in writing in a timely manner and are encouraged to seek transfers to Schools or Departments that have posted vacancies.
(e) For those excessed employees who are unable to secure another position through the transfer process, the District will list all unplaced excessed employees according to their seniority and starting with the most senior, and then place those employees in positions for which they are qualified.
(f) When placing an excessed employee, consideration shall be given to the individual’s prior year work location, assignment, workday, and work year.

a. The incumbent is offered the option of retaining the reduced position on a voluntary basis.
b. If incumbent declines the reduced position, the old position will be canceled; thereby, excessing the incumbent and the regular excessing rules and procedures will be applied so that the least senior employee of like status be affected.
