SUBSTITUTE TEACHING ASSIGNMENTS. 1. When an employee must be absent from instruction duties, a substitute shall be provided by the building principal, if possible. Employees having instructional and preparation responsibilities of their own will not be assigned to substitute for other employees except a) in emergency situations (i.e. any unforeseen circumstances or combination of circumstances which calls for any immediate action in a situation which is not expected to be of a recurring nature); or b) by mutual agreement between teachers and/or administrators, or the teacher has a corresponding planning or free period.
2. If presently employed staff is called upon to substitute in situations of a) or b) above, and they substitute on their planning period, they will receive remuneration of one/fifth the daily compensation rate for substitute teachers per class period. Payment for this extra duty shall be made once a month. It is understood that such payment will be made only for administratively approved substitute work.
3. Each employee shall have his/her designated planning time established at the beginning of each school year, and payment will be made only for that time. All other time shall be considered at the disposal of administration officials as a part of the regularly controlled time covered by contracted salary.
SUBSTITUTE TEACHING ASSIGNMENTS. Whenever possible, teachers on lay-off who have recall rights shall be given opportunity over new hires to accept substitute teaching assignments in the order of priority of Sub-Section 1.
