The termination of services of or failure to re-employ any probationary teacher. b. The termination of any teacher to a position on the extracurricular scale. B. In the event that a teacher believes there is a basis for a grievance, he/she shall first discuss the alleged grievances with his/her building principal, either personally or accompanied by his/her Association representative within five (5) days of becoming aware of the alleged incident. C. If, as a result of the informal discussions with the building principal, a grievance still exists, he/she may, within five (5) work days, set forth the grievance on a form, signed by the grievant and a representative of the Association. A copy of the grievance form shall be delivered to the principal. If the grievance involves more than one (1) school building, it may be filed with the superintendent or designee. D. Within five (5) calendar days of receipt of the grievance, the principal shall meet with the Association in an effort to resolve the grievance. The principal shall indicate his/her disposition of the grievance in writing within five (5) calendar days of such meeting, and shall furnish a copy thereof to the Association. E. If the Association is not satisfied with the disposition of the grievance, or if no disposition has been made within five (5) calendar days of such meeting (or ten (10) calendar days from the date of filing, whichever shall be later), the grievance shall be transmitted to the superintendent or designee who shall meet with the Association on the grievance and shall indicate his/her disposition of the grievance in writing within five (5) calendar days of such meeting, and shall furnish a copy thereof to the Association. F. If the Association is not satisfied with the disposition of the grievance by the superintendent or designee, or if no disposition has been made within five (5) work days of such meeting (or ten (10) work days from the date of filing with the Superintendent, whichever is later), the grievance shall be transmitted to the Board by filing a written copy thereof with the Secretary or other designee of the Board. The Board, no later than its next regular meeting or two (2) weeks, whichever is later, shall meet with the Association on the grievance. Disposition of the grievance in writing by the Board shall be made no later than seven (7) work days thereafter. A copy of such disposition shall be furnished to the Association. G. If the Association is not satisfied with the disposition of the grievance by the Board, or if no disposition has been made within the period above provided, the grievance may be submitted to arbitration before an impartial arbitrator by written notice to that effect from the Association to the Board within seven (7) calendar days. The arbitrator shall be selected by the American Arbitration Association in accord with its rules which shall likewise govern the arbitration proceeding.
