Personnel Assignment and Transfer. When a licensed professional vacancy arises, the vacancy shall be posted on the USD 383 Applicant Portal. Posting will be for a period of ten (10) calendar days before the position is filled. All new positions in USD 383 will be accompanied by a job description. Section B - Assignments Before the beginning of each school year, or when a licensed professional is first hired after a school year has begun, each licensed professional shall be assigned to a position by the Superintendent subject to the approval of the Board. The Superintendent has complete discretion in making this assignment, and each licensed professional’s assignment may, but need not be, the same as the prior year. In order to ensure that students are taught by licensed professionals within their areas of specialization, licensed professionals should not be assigned, except temporarily and as necessary, to subjects or grade levels or other classes outside the scope of their teaching certificates/licensures and/or their major or minor fields of study. Current licensed professionals shall be notified in writing by the end of each school year of their assignment and program, including building schedule, hourly subject, and/or grade level for the ensuing year, unless such programs have not yet been ascertained. In this case, notice will be furnished to the licensed professional as soon as the assignment has been determined. The Superintendent may change the assignment of a licensed professional through the tenth student attendance day of the ensuing year. Licensed professionals will be notified of this “reassignment” for the ensuing year as soon as such changes are made. No reassignment shall be made unless deemed necessary by the building administrator or at the licensed professional’s request, subject to administrative approval. After the tenth student attendance day of the ensuing year, the Superintendent may transfer a licensed professional to a different assignment (“transfer”), but only in case of an emergency or to prevent undue disruption of the instructional program. After the first student attendance day of the ensuing year, the combining of two district courses offered during the same class period and taught by the same instructor or the combining of grade levels in the elementary classrooms shall occur only after consultation between the administration and the licensed professional involved.
