Issuance of Contracts. Contracts shall be issued annually and the Board or its duly authorized agents shall sign all individual contracts before they are issued to the employees. Contracts for the next year shall be issued no later than May 25th of any year of this Agreement. Contracts shall be signed by the employee and returned to the Board within ten (10) school days thereafter unless prior arrangements have been made in writing with the Superintendent. Failure to timely return a fully executed contract, absent a written waiver by the Superintendent, will be the equivalent of a voluntary resignation by the employee. In the event of late negotiations, "Letters of Intent" will be issued, subject to final ratification and adjustment of wages consistent with the Master Agreement, as finally ratified. If for any reason "Letters of Intent" cannot be distributed by May 25th in any year, the Association will be notified as soon as the Board can be expected to reasonably know of the delay.
