Review By Board of Education. Any administrative proposal or decision regarding scheduling that meets the parameters of sections A and B of this Article, including any proposal to change a building schedule from a “traditional” schedule, shall be subject to review by the Board upon the request of the Association made in writing and upon notice to the Superintendent. The purpose of the review shall be to permit the Association to present, and for the Board to consider, information or argument regarding any alleged inequity, improper discrimination, or arbitrariness in the administrative proposal or decision or a related failure to communicate timely. In this connection, information regarding past scheduling practices may be presented but need not be considered binding. In addition, if the Association alleges a negotiable impact of the administrative proposal or determination, the Board shall consider same. In making any such claim of negotiability, the Association shall state whether it wishes to reopen the contract or defer such negotiations to the time of negotiations for a successor agreement. The Board shall convene as a whole or by duly authorized subcommittee to begin such consideration within two weeks of the receipt of the Association’s request. The Board shall communicate its determination of the matter to the Association in writing within one week of the conclusion of the review. Nothing herein shall be deemed to preclude review of a negotiability issue by PERC according to law.
