PROTECTION OF TEACHER RIGHTS. 1. Any formal complaint or criticism concerning a teacher deemed by an administrator to justify investigation or action of any nature shall be brought to the attention of the teacher involved. When deemed appropriate by the administrator or teacher involved, a conference(s) shall be scheduled involving the concerned parties. Parties to the conference(s) may, at their option, have Association representatives present. In no case will a written report be made or will any entry be made in a teacher's personnel file or any formal disciplinary action be taken as a result of a complaint or criticism until the above procedures have been followed, it being understood that the Superintendent may take such action as necessary where the health, welfare, or safety of students or other persons may be in jeopardy. 2. The Board shall give reasonable support to teachers in the discharge of their duties in accordance with Board policies and state statutes. 3. No teacher shall suffer discrimination in respect to employment in the District based on age, sex, race, creed, marital status, religion, or political activities or lack thereof. 4. No teacher shall be formally disciplined or reprimanded, reduced in compensation, suspended or terminated without just cause. Nothing herein shall be construed to infringe upon or restrict the Board's right to decline to renew the contracts of teachers in accordance with the applicable laws, it being understood that the Board shall not base its decision of non-renewal upon arbitrary or capricious grounds. This clause does not apply to extra or co-curricular or department head positions.
