VACANCIES, TRANSFERS AND PROMOTIONS A. As it relates to individual employees who are not regulated by the Teacher Tenure Act, a vacancy is defined as a newly created position or a current position in the bargaining unit which the Board intends to fill which has become open due to death, reassignment, retirement, resignation or dismissal of an employee. Such positions will not be posted until all teachers are assigned.
1. The above vacancies shall be posted online and via school email to all staff.
2. Positions as described above shall be posted at least ten (10) business days prior to being permanently filled, unless the vacancy occurs and is posted within ten (10) business days of the first official teacher work day of the school year. In that case, the posting period will be five (5) business days.
3. Any employee may apply for such positions by submitting a written letter to the Superintendent's Office.

Such request shall be made in writing to the Personnel Office with a copy to the Association President. The application shall set forth the school, grade or position sought, and the applicant's qualifications. Such request shall be reviewed twice each year to assure active consideration by the Board. In the event an employee is granted a transfer, the record of the transfer and any pertinent information related to the transfer shall be placed into the employee’s personnel file. No employee will be discriminated against because of a request to transfer.
Promotions and Transfers The parties contemplate that employees employed within the Utility Clerk, General Clerk, Meat Clerk, Service Clerk or any other classification may desire to seek promotions or transfers into other areas within the store. In the event an employee is promoted into a new classification, said employee will be treated as a probationary employee within that new classification pursuant to Paragraph 3.2 of this Agreement. An employee who is so promoted, but who is unable to perform the work of that classification to the satisfaction of the Employer as a probationary employee may return to his prior classification and wage rate without any loss of seniority in said classification. However, if an employee is terminated for conduct unrelated to a simple inability to perform work, said employee shall have no right to return to his prior classification and shall be considered terminated for all purposes. In the event an employee passes the probationary period within the new classification, his seniority date for purposes of layoff and recall shall be the date of assignment within the new classification. Employees transferred to a new store shall retain their seniority rights. Employees shall state their preference for transfer to a new location upon request by the Employer. Employees shall be selected for transfer by seniority in classification.
3.8.1 All permanent job vacancies in the Warehouse Clerk classification shall be handled on a store-by-store basis. General Clerks, Meat Clerks or Service Clerks in each store who have worked in their respective classification for at least five hundred twenty (520) hours and are desirous of promotion and are otherwise reasonably qualified for promotional opportunity in accordance with this provision must file a semi-annual written request for promotion with their Store Manager during the first (1st) two (2) working weeks in February and August. A Utility Clerk that works in a higher classification for more than sixty (60) calendar days shall be deemed to have been promoted. A General Clerk, Meat Clerk or Service Clerk who has made application shall be granted an available Warehouse Clerk position by seniority, provided they have the qualifications and availability to perform the required work. The employee selected for promotion to Warehouse Clerk under this provision shall be subject to the provisions of Paragraph 3.8 above. All permanent job vacancies in the Warehouse Clerk, General Clerk, Service Clerk and Meat Clerk classifications shall be handled on a store-to-store basis. Utility Clerks who have actually worked at least five hundred twenty (520) hours, and who are desirous of promotion, and who are otherwise reasonably qualified for promotional opportunity in accordance with this provision must file a semi-annual written request for promotion (“Declaration of Interest”) with the Store Director during the first (1st) two (2) weeks of February and August.
3.8.2 All permanent job vacancies in the Apprentice Meat Cutter classification shall be handled on a store-by-store basis. Meat Clerks in each store who have worked in the Meat Clerk classification for at least one thousand five hundred (1500) hours and are desirous of promotion and are otherwise reasonably qualified for promotional opportunity in accordance with the provision must file a semi-annual written request for promotion with their Store Manager during the first (1st) two (2) working weeks in February and August. A Meat Clerk who has made application shall be granted an available Apprentice Meat Cutter position by seniority, provided they have the qualifications and availability to perform the required work. The employee selected for promotion to Apprentice Meat Cutter under this provision shall be subject to the provisions of Paragraph 3.8 above. It is not intended that Paragraphs 3.8.1 and 3.8.2 have any effect on the Employer’s right to transfer employees in any classification between stores.
3.8.3 All employees who are promoted to a higher rated classification of employment shall be subject to the wage progression schedule set forth in Appendix A and receive the next immediate higher rate of pay for that classification as set forth in Appendix A until such time as the employee has accumulated sufficient total credited hours of experience equal to two times (2x) the hours required for that step of the new classification rate before proceeding to the next progression schedule.
VACANCIES, PROMOTIONS AND TRANSFERS A. Whenever a teacher is interested in being considered for assignment to any professional position in the district, he/she shall file written notice of his/her interest to the Assistant Superintendent of Human Resources. The Board declares its intention to give full consideration to present staff members in all vacancies in which they have expressed an interest.
1. It is agreed that any vacancy occurring during the current school year shall only be filled on a temporary basis for the remainder of that school year. By May 1 of each year, a list of all vacancies shall be posted in a designated area in each administrative unit. Any teacher with proper qualifications may, within seven (7) calendar days of May 1 and all subsequent postings until August 1 of each year, apply for and shall be granted an interview before such vacancy is filled, with the exception of when reductions in grade levels/subject areas occur in a building allowing first right of refusal to displaced staff for any open positions in his/her individual building. Vacant positions will be posted for three (3) work days after August 1 and prior to the first reported student instructional day of each year.
2. Any teacher requesting transfer between administrative units shall notify the Assistant Superintendent of Human Resources by April 30 for transfer in the subsequent year. Involuntary transfers within a building will occur prior to extending consideration to voluntary transfer requests. Before vacancies are filled, the qualifications of each teacher who has requested transfer shall be reviewed.
3. It is agreed that any teacher making written request to be assigned a position whose FTE is less than their current assignment has no guarantee of a future increase in FTE except as provided by the process defined elsewhere in this Article.
4. A vacancy shall be defined for purposes of this contract as a position presently unfilled, one to be open in the future or a new position, and which has no teacher on leave of absence or layoff status with the claim to the position.
B. Since the frequent transfer of teachers from one school and/or grade level to another is disruptive to the educational process and interferes with optimum teacher performance, the parties agree that unrequested transfers of teachers are to be minimized.

1. Recall rights shall be limited to the twenty-four (24) months period commencing on the day following the employee's last day of work.
2. Teachers whose contracts were non-renewed or suspended shall be recalled to a vacancy in the inverse order of non-renewal or suspension as positions become available in their area of certification/licensure at the time of recall; provided however, that certificated tutors whose contracts were non-renewed or suspended shall be recalled only to certificated tutor vacancies, and then in the inverse order of non-renewal of suspension as such positions become available in their area of certification/licensure at the time of recall; and further provided however, seniority shall not be the basis for recalling a teacher, except when making a decision between teachers who have comparable evaluations. Teachers must notify the District of any changes in their area of certification/licensure.
3. A teacher notified of recall to a position may turn down the first offered position, allowing the Superintendent to offer said position to the next person on the recall list who is qualified to fill said position. The person making the turndown would retain his/her position on the recall list. If a teacher refuses recall to another position, said teacher's name shall be removed from the recall list; except no teacher shall be removed from the recall list for refusing a lesser position (time or pay) than the one from which he/she was reduced. Provided however, no teacher whose continuing contract has been suspended shall lose the right of recall and restoration to continuing service status by reason of having declined recall to a position that is less than full-time or, if the teacher was not employed full-time just prior to suspension of the teacher's continuing contract, to a position requiring a lesser percentage of full-time employment than the position the teacher last held while employed in the district.
4. Teachers on recall status shall have the responsibility for keeping the Superintendent informed of their current address, name change, and telephone number.
