Non-Certificated Personnel. It is the policy of the Union #61 School Committee to maintain an organization of non-certificated personnel which is keyed to the needs and legal structure of the educational program.
Non-Certificated Personnel. It is recognized that members of the non-certificated staff require specialized qualifications, and that the success of the educational program in the River Valley Local School District depends upon the maximum utilization of the abilities of non-certificated personnel who are reasonably well satisfied with the conditions under which their service are rendered.
Non-Certificated Personnel. In no case shall any non-certificated employee be requested or required to perform any duty mandated by law to be performed by a duly certified professional employee, except in cases of emergency as determined by the building administrator.
Non-Certificated Personnel. Except for emergency, short-term (2 hours or less) situations, no non-certificated personnel shall be solely responsible for supervision of a classroom. Any assignment that is currently held by a certified employee shall not be filled upon a vacancy by non-certificated personnel. Temporary replacement of a certificated position during a school year shall be mutually addressed by the Association and Administration. The certificated position shall be restored the following school year.
Non-Certificated Personnel. The duties of non-certificated personnel shall be confined solely and exclusively to supportive duties within the school district. However, non-instructional employees may serve as permanent substitutes, manage in-school suspension and time-out rooms, and support the school in activities in which an educator’s certificate is not required.
Non-Certificated Personnel. Non-certificated personnel will not be allowed to assume the teaching duties of an absent teacher.
Non-Certificated Personnel. 1. Members of the non-certificated staff who have received tenure or have completed three years of service and have been renewed for another year shall be granted, upon receipt of a written request, a child care leave to extend up to the end of the employee's work year. Child-care leave of less than the remainder of the work year may be granted subject to Board approval. Said written request for child-care leave shall be made as soon as possible.
2. Such leave shall take the following factors into consideration.
a. Utilization of sick leave benefits may immediately precede the commencement of said leave.
b. The reasonableness of dovetailing staff changes with the school calendar.
c. Said child care leave shall be granted in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
3. Child care leave shall be without pay for the period outside of sick leave as may be medically certified.
4. Child care leave shall be extended, if requested, for an additional period up to one full work year. Such requests must be filed no later then sixty days prior to the expiration of the initial leave.
5. Any employee with tenure status, or who has completed three years of service and has been renewed for another year, who is adopting an infant preschool child may receive a leave similar to that for child care leave, and which shall commence upon receiving the actual custody of said infant or earlier if necessary to fulfill the requirements for adoption.
Non-Certificated Personnel. Certificated personnel possess unique talent. Except for emergency, short-term (2 hours or less) situations, no non-certificated personnel shall be solely responsible for supervision of a classroom. Any assignment that is currently held by a certified employee shall not be filled upon a vacancy by non-certificated personnel. Temporary replacement of a certificated position during a school year shall be mutually addressed by the Association and Administration. The certificated position shall be restored the following school year.
Non-Certificated Personnel. 1. Employee evaluations are for the purpose of promoting individual job performance and improving services to students.
2. The evaluation process shall provide a procedure for identifying and commending effective performance, for counseling and assisting employees where improvements are desired, and for providing a rational process upon which to make re-employment determinations.
Non-Certificated Personnel. 1. Members of the non-certificated staff who have received tenure or have completed three years of service and have been renewed for another year shall be granted, upon receipt of a written request, child care leave following the conclusion of either paid sick leave or utilization of the NJFLA or FMLA, as described below. Requests must be submitted at least sixty days prior to the expiration of the current leave.
2. Such leave shall take the following factors into consideration.
a. Utilization of sick leave benefits may immediately precede the commencement of said leave.
b. The reasonableness of dovetailing staff changes with the school calendar.
c. Said child care leave shall be granted in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
d. Return to work date from such leave must be July 1st, September 1st, or February 1st.
3. Child care leave shall be without pay for the period outside of sick leave as may be medically certified.
4. Child care leave shall be extended, if requested, for an additional period up to one full work year. Such requests must be filed no later than sixty days prior to the expiration of the initial leave. This notice may only be waived for exceptional circumstances and as approved by the Superintendent or designee.
5. Any employee with tenure status, or who has completed three years of service and has been renewed for another year, who is adopting an infant preschool child may receive a leave similar to that for child care leave, and which shall commence upon receiving the actual custody of said infant or earlier if necessary to fulfill the requirements for adoption.
