Section 1: The Board recognizes the valuable assistance to be gained in its responsibility of determining school policies from effective communications with the Association. Representatives of the Board, and Association, (not more than three (3) for each group), will meet when necessary at mutually agreeable times to discuss matters of mutual concern. In addition, each party may utilize such resource persons, as it deems appropriate for any particular meeting. These meetings shall be held after school hours. At the first meeting of the school year, the representatives will establish rules of procedure for such meetings aimed at making them an efficient means of communications between the parties in such matters. Section 2: The parties agree that this Committee shall serve in an advisory, consultative, and fact-finding capacity only and further that nothing shall preclude an individual teacher from making such recommendations and/or inquiries. These Committee meetings are not intended to bypass the grievance procedure.
