Regular Substitute. Substitute is defined as a teacher who is employed by the District to take the place of a teacher who is on Board-approved leave of absence. Appointment as a Regular Substitute for a teacher who is on Board-approved leave of absence will be effective from the first working day of the approved leave. Only certified teachers will be hired as Regular Substitutes. If no certified teachers can be found after a reasonable effort, the District may ask for a waiver from the State Education Department, Bureau of Teacher Education and Certification. A Regular Substitute will initially be placed on salary in the same manner as a probationary teacher. In order to receive benefits under Article 8010, the regular substitute must be appointed to a term of service starting no later than October 1 of a school year and lasting until the end of that school year. A regular substitute will receive any other fringe benefits provided to probationary teachers. All benefits provided will be on a pro-rated basis. A per diem substitute with appropriate certification who works sixteen (16) consecutive days or more in the same assignment will be appointed as a Regular Substitute effective on the sixteenth 16th) working day. The term consecutive will not prevent a substitute from being absent for reasons of personal illness, family death, or a single day return of the regular teacher. All other full-time teachers shall be appointed to a probationary contract.
Regular Substitute substitute is employed to replace someone on a Board-appointed leave of absence of someone absent for at least one (1) semester, at a rate to be determined by the appropriate placement on the instructional salary schedule. It is understood that the regular substitute will be terminated if the absent teacher gives notice of his/her desire or eligibility to return. Such notice should be given at least two (2) weeks prior to the desired return date (includes nurses, 1988). In the event of the absence of a teacher to which a teaching assistant is assigned, the District will offer the assistant the opportunity to serve as the substitute teacher. Should the teaching assistant agree to serve as the substitute teacher, the assistant will be paid forty dollars ($40) per day above the regular teaching assistant’s salary for each day of substitute service. In the event that half day’s service is necessary, the teaching assistant will be paid an additional twenty dollars ($20). In order to improve the educational program and the capabilities of teachers, attendance at professional meetings is encouraged. Funds will be provided by the District for the purpose of reimbursing. Such expenses include registration, fees, room charges, travel costs, and meals. Everyone who attends a professional meeting will submit a written conference report to his/her building principal, Teaching Center Director, and the Superintendent of Schools. (Teachers and Teaching Assistants) (Nurses 1988) The Board of Education believes that it is the responsibility of every citizen to serve on jury duty when called upon to do so under regular processes of jury selection. All District personnel called to serve on jury duty under the regular process of law may serve with no loss in pay from the District. A teacher who is selected for jury duty should notify his/her building principal who will in turn notify the District Office regarding the dates of absence.
