The phrases "longest service in the District" or "number of years in the system" shall be computed from the last day of hire and shall not be interrupted by leaves of absence approved by the Board or transfer to administrative positions, subject, however, to Paragraph H(4). 2. Qualified teachers are those teachers who meet the minimum requirements under ESEA/NCLB and the Michigan Department of Education. 3. In cases where teachers are equally qualified and have the same number of years in the system, the Board shall have the right to determine who is laid off, provided, however, such action shall not be contrary to the priorities established under the Teachers' Tenure Act or its successor law. 4. The Board shall give twenty-one (21) or more calendar days' notice of such layoff to the Association and to the employees involved. B. A teacher laid off pursuant to this Article shall not be entitled to pay for fringe benefits while on layoff, it being understood that layoff will terminate individual contracts. A teacher that has taught the full school year and is laid off at the end of the year will continue to be covered by health, vision, and dental insurance for the months of June, July and August as per Article 15(E). C. The Board shall have no obligation to recall any nontenure teacher laid off pursuant to this Article or to recall any tenured teacher who has been laid off for three (3) or more years. D. Tenure teachers shall be recalled in the opposite manner as described in Paragraph A for layoff. E. The Board shall give written notice of recall from layoff by sending a registered or certified letter to said teacher at his/her last known address. It shall be the responsibility of the teacher to notify the Board of any change in address. The teacher's address, as it appears in the Board's records, shall be conclusive when used in connection with layoffs, recall, or any other notice to the teacher. If a teacher fails to provide notice of intent to return within five (5) days from the date of receipt of the written recall document, said teacher shall be considered a voluntary quit or resignation. If a teacher fails to report for work within five (5) days of receipt of notification to report to work, unless an extension is granted in writing by the Board, said teacher shall be considered a voluntary quit and shall thereby completely terminate the individual employment contract and any other employment relationship with the Board. F. In the event of a necessary reduction in staff, the Board agrees to grant requests for voluntary leaves of absence provided that the teaching position(s) or the leave applicant(s) can be filled by another bargaining unit member. Such leave of absence shall not exceed one (1) school year. G. The Board shall publish a seniority list and distribute it to all teachers by October 15 of each year. 1. Teachers shall be listed in order, starting with the teacher with the longest service in the bargaining unit. 2. The seniority list shall also list the teacher's longevity credit and certification with majors/minors. H. Seniority shall accrue from the first day of work as a bargaining unit member. 1. A part-time teacher shall accrue seniority on a prorated basis. 2. A teacher in a job-share position, under the terms of Article 18, shall accrue seniority as if employed full time. 3. A teacher on an approved unpaid leave of absence under terms of this Agreement shall not accrue seniority while on leave, except as provided in this Agreement. 4. Administrators shall not accrue seniority while in administrative positions. If a teacher becomes an administrator and later returns to the bargaining unit, he/she shall be reinstated with the seniority he/she had at the time he/she left the bargaining unit. I. Seniority shall be lost upon severance of the employment relationship between the teacher and the District.
