Disposition of the grievance in writing by the Board shall be made no later than seven (7) days thereafter. A copy of such disposition shall be furnished to the Association. F. The Association may request arbitration of any unresolved grievance which is arbitrable by filing the Arbitration Request Form with the American Arbitration Association and delivering a copy of this Form to the Employer through the Superintendent's Office within thirty (30) working days following the receipt of the Board's written disposition. If the Board fails to answer a grievance within the time limits set forth in Paragraph E, the Association may request arbitration by filing the Arbitration Request Form with the American Arbitration Association and delivering a copy of this Form to the Employer through the Superintendent's Office not later than thirty (30) working days following the date the Board's written disposition was due. The grievance may thereafter be submitted to arbitration. If the Association does not request arbitration in the manner or within the time limits established herein, the grievance shall be considered settled on the basis of the Employer's last disposition. If a grievance is to be submitted to arbitration, the arbitrator shall be selected from a panel submitted by the American Arbitration Association pursuant to their rules The fees and expenses of the arbitrator and all hearing location costs shall be shared equally by the Association and the Employer. Each party shall pay the fees, expenses, wages, and any other compensation of its own representatives and legal counsel. The arbitrator's powers shall be limited to the application and interpretation of this Agreement as written. The arbitrator shall at all times be governed wholly by the terms of this Agreement and shall have no power or authority to amend, alter or modify this Agreement either directly or indirectly, or to rule upon a specific grievance considered settled. In addition, the following may not be considered by the arbitrator: 1. The termination of service of or failure to reemploy any probationary teacher. 2. Any action involving a tenured teacher, including but not limited to discharge, demotion, layoff or failure to recall, if that action when timely raised is subject to review before the Michigan Teacher Tenure Commission. If the issue of arbitrability is raised, the arbitrator shall not determine the merits of any grievance unless arbitrability has been affirmatively decided. The arbitrator's decision shall be final and binding upon the Association, the Employer and employees in the bargaining unit; provided, however, that each party may have its legal remedies if the arbitrator exceeds the jurisdiction provided in this Agreement. G. If any teacher for whom a grievance is sustained shall be found to have been unjustly discharged, he shall be reinstated with full reimbursement of all professional compensation lost. If he shall have been found to have been improperly deprived of any professional compensation or advantage, the same or its equivalent in money shall be paid to him. H. The time limits provided in this article shall be strictly observed but may be extended by written agreement of the parties. In the event a grievance is filed after May 15 of any year and strict adherence to the time limits may result in hardship to any party, the Board shall use its best efforts to process such grievance prior to the end of the school term or as soon thereafter as possible. I. If an individual teacher has a personal complaint which he desires to discuss with a supervisor, he is free to do so without recourse to the grievance procedure. However, no grievance shall be adjusted without prior notification to the Association and opportunity for an Association representative to be present, nor shall any adjustment of a grievance be inconsistent with the terms of the Agreement. In the administration of the grievance procedure, the interests of the teachers shall be the sole responsibility of the Association. J.
