Hours and Days of Work. Section 1 It is recognized that Administrators have the same professional hours as other Okemos professional personnel. By professional hours, we mean that Administrators must be on the job whenever it is necessary for them to fulfill their role as the leader/supervisor of the educational program and activities within their building. The goal of professional hours is to make sure the quality educational supervision takes place. This can be done only if there is the dedication of the professional Administrator. It is expected of professional Administrators that they will be in their buildings during heavy and crucial school related activity hours, including before and after school and evening hours, it being understood that principal representation at evening meetings and/or functions is mandatory. Since the crucial and heavy activity hours vary according to building and level, Administrators will work with the Superintendent in identifying those hours. Also, with the permission of the Superintendent, the principal may appoint an assistant or designee to cover some of the crucial and heavy activity hours. The use of a designee or assistant will be on file in the Superintendent's office in case of emergencies.
