Stretch Calendar. A stretch calendar is defined as a school year calendar from July 1 to June 30 of a given year. Teachers serving as itinerant staff (ie: Occupational Therapy, Physical Therapy, Speech/Language) will have an opportunity to work collaboratively with the Executive Director to create the best individual stretch calendar for that teacher and the children they service. Any adjustments to assignments will be communicated with and approved by the Director.
Stretch Calendar. Beginning with teachers hired January 1, 2005 or later, The District may schedule a “stretch calendar” for teachers who work with children that require additional instruction during the normal breaks of the year including the summer period, keeping their total contract days at the number set in this agreement. An effort will be made to provide days off during the regular student contact year that take into account the needs of the students as well as to the benefit of the teacher working the stretch calendar. Nothing prohibits teachers hired before January 1, 2005 from requesting and being selected to work a stretch calendar.
Stretch Calendar. The District will determine the calendar of Early Childhood Special Education (ECSE) teachers, which may vary from the calendar of other teachers. Except for short workweeks, it is the goal of the District to establish a consistent four-day workweek during the regular school year and also when possible during the months of June, July and August.
Stretch Calendar. Beginning July 1st, 2018, stretch calendars for ECSE will run from July 1st through June 30th, rather than first day of teacher workshop one year until the first day of teacher workshop the following year.
Stretch Calendar. A stretch calendar is defined as a school year calendar from July 1 to June 30 of a given year. Teachers serving as itinerant staff (ie: Occupational Therapists, Physical Therapists, School Psychologists, Non-Administrative Coordinators, Teachers of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing, Physical/Health Disability Teachers, Autism Consultants, and Teachers of the Blind and Visually Impaired) will have an opportunity to work collaboratively with the Executive Director of Special Education to create the best individual stretch calendar for that teacher, students and member district(s) they service.

Stretch Calendar. A Stretch Calendar is defined as a calendar that follows the standard fiscal year of July 1st through June 30th of any given year. By mutual agreement between the WBLTA and the District, any individual teacher can work on a stretch calendar instead of the standard teaching calendar. These teachers will follow the number of days including holidays as outlined in Section 1 of this Article. It is understood that certain positions are required to work a stretch calendar. For example, all Birth to Three Early Childhood Special Education (ECSE) staff work on a stretch calendar. In addition, all Teachers on Special Assignment (TOSA) can agree, in conjunction with the District and the WBLTA, as part of the special assignment to work a stretch calendar. However, it is also agreed that teachers work a stretch calendar only when necessary and when all parties agree to it in advance. In addition, should additional days beyond the 194 days set forth in the contract be necessary during the normal summer period, the hourly rate of pay found in Article 5, Section 4 of this contract shall apply.
