Selection for Transfer. Final decision on selection to fill vacancies shall be within the sole discretion of the District. Selections shall be made on the basis of merit, including, but not limited to, such factors as skills, knowledge, personal qualifications, and potential for growth. In considering unit members for transfer, attention shall be given to past evaluations, reference checks, experience and knowledge of the District’s personnel, students, policies and procedures.

(a) Contribution which the staff member could make to the students in the new teaching position according to training, experience and interest;
(b) Qualifications of the staff member as compared to those of other candidates, both for the position to be vacated and for the position to be filled;
(c) The desires of the staff member regarding the transfer or reassignment;
(d) The recommendations of the principals, department chairpersons, section or unit leaders or team members involved in the transfer;
(e) The opportunities for professional growth on the teacher’s part; or
(f) Seniority. In the event that all other criteria are essentially similar, the teacher highest on the seniority list shall be preferred. Each teacher applying for voluntary transfer shall be promptly notified in writing of the disposition of such application. In the event that an application for transfer by a teacher eligible for the vacant position is denied and another teacher is transferred or a new teacher is employed in the position, the applying teacher may request a review of the reasons and criteria for the action and shall have the right to receive a timely written statement of such reasons and criteria from the Deputy Superintendent. A teacher who currently works in more than one (1) building may choose to exercise his/her entitlement in one
(1) of those buildings if a vacancy exists in his/her current area of assignment. Kindergarten through 5th grade classroom teachers, who teach in more than one (1) building may choose to fill a full-time vacancy in another elementary grade level in either building. This election of assignment must take place within five (5) working days of when the first vacancy occurs in either building. The teacher may apply for future vacancies pursuant to Article X.
