Common use of PROGRAM MOVEMENT OR CLOSURE Clause in Contracts

PROGRAM MOVEMENT OR CLOSURE. 1. Instructional staff associated with a program that moves from one work site to another are assumed to move with the program. A teacher who prefers to stay at the original site may do so, if there is a vacancy for which they are qualified/certified and if the employee commits to the training or changes in curriculum as the CSIP requires for the next year. A teacher who chooses not to move with the program or to accept a position at the original site (or for whom no vacancy is available) will be displaced and must apply and compete for other positions in the SPS. 2. If a program is terminated and then reinstated within two (2) school years, teachers who were in that program shall have first priority for the re-openings. The teacher will successfully complete the training as required in the school’s CSIP and will revise curriculum and instructional methods to reflect the new direction of the program. 3. Prior to terminating a program or the closure of a school, any displaced teacher may choose from the following options: to remain at the original site if there is a vacancy for which they are qualified/certified and if the employee commits to the training or changes in curriculum as required in the CSIP for the next year or shall select or be placed in a vacancy during Phase II, after those needing 504 accommodation have been placed.
