Common use of Facilitated Transfers Clause in Contracts

Facilitated Transfers. Facilitated transfers are transfers intended for use by tenured staff who want to change their current building, assignment, and/or position. To be considered for facilitated transfer for the next school year, the teacher must make submission of the facilitated transfer form to the Human Resources Office by March 1st. This submission is valid for three (3) years. In the event that no placement is offered within the three (3) years the teacher may, upon re-submission, retain his/her original position on the facilitated transfer list. Teachers on the list who have not been able to complete a facilitated transfer may in year three (3) be placed in a vacancy for which they are certified and endorsed when it becomes available according to the Order of Placement of Staffing timeline as a starting point and then up to the first day of school. This placement made by the Human Resources Office will consider, time on the facilitated transfer list, qualifications and seniority if more than one (1) person is on the list for the same type of position. Upon acceptance the facilitated transfer process is completed. Refusal of the facilitated transfer placement will result in the teacher staying in his/her current placement and starting the facilitated transfer process over. A person, once granted a facilitated transfer, will not be granted another facilitated transfer request for at least three (3) years.
