The rights granted to teachers hereunder shall be deemed to be in addition to those provided elsewhere. C. The Association and its representatives shall have the right to use school buildings at all reasonable hours for meetings, provided that when special custodial service is required, the Board may make a reasonable charge therefore.

H. The Board may consult with the Association on any new or modified fiscal, budgetary or tax programs, construction program, or major revision of educational policy, which are proposed or under consideration and the Association may be given opportunity to advise the Board with respect to said matters prior to their adoption and/or general publications.
