Remediation Measures. 1. If the daily enrollment in a K-5 class exceeds the class size ratio listed in Section A, the remediation measures of Section C.3 will apply. This remediation will be paid quarterly and will be calculated on the fifteenth day of each quarter. Remediation funds, per student over the appropriate class size ratio, shall be determined by dividing the first cell of the salary schedule by the class size ratio for K-1 in Section A. Except for this provision, any enforcement of the K-3 standards or any penalties or other remedies will be only through the appropriate State rules and regulations. 2. If the class size staffing ratios for grades 6 through 12 within a school exceeds the above listed averages on the fifteenth day of the school year and/or the beginning of the second semester, the remediation measures described in Section C.3 below will apply. 3. When remediation measures apply, the first consideration for the use of the remediation funds shall be to reduce the impact of the larger class size. The principal and staff members involved shall explore and mutually discuss the following methods for remediation, and thereafter the principal shall select from the following options: a. Aide assistance b. Additional aide time or additional classroom support FTE c. Transfer of pupils. d. Hiring of additional teacher(s). e. If after discussion, none of the above options are feasible, the principal and staff members involved will present a remediation plan for equivalent funds in lieu of personnel to the Superintendent or designee for approval. In the case of remediation in grades 6 through 12, the principal will present the remediation plan to the staff by the twenty-first day of the semester or school year, whichever is appropriate. In the case of remediation in grades K- 5, the plan will be presented within 10 school days of the date on which the criteria for remediation are met. 4. The District shall provide the Association with the class size school average statistics as of the eleventh day of the school year, or thereafter on request.
