TEACHING LOADS AND ASSIGNMENTS A. The Board has the right to determine class schedules (Article III, Board Rights). The normal teacher load would include one preparation period for each full day equal in time to the teaching period length. The Association would be notified of possible changes in the schedule. Some of the reasons for schedule changes could be a change in the State requirements, student needs, financial hardship, etc. (This list is not intended to be all inclusive.)
1. With the exception of a preparation period, teachers may be assigned to various locations throughout the buildings at the discretion of the Board fifteen (15) minutes prior to classes beginning and ending.
2. Secondary teachers may be assigned an additional teaching period at a rate equivalent to one (1) period of their normal teaching load. This will be avoided as much as possible unless a scheduling problem would arise.
3. In the case where it is advantageous and beneficial to run a zero (0) hour class for students at the High School, no teacher shall be required to take that position. Any teacher who voluntarily accepts such a position shall either be compensated at their teacher rate or shall be allowed to end their work day one class hour prior to the end of the student day.
4. Teachers in grades K-5 will not be required to have recess duty. The time established for vocal music, physical education, study skills, computers, etc. shall be used for preparation time for K-5 teachers. This time shall not be reduced to less than a forty-five (45) minutes for K-5.
B. The Board shall make every effort to equalize teaching loads so that no High School or Middle School teacher shall be required to have more than three (3) preparations. However, when a teacher is assigned more than three (3) preparations the teacher shall be compensated Two Hundred ($200.00) Dollars per semester. The exceptions to the above preparations shall be teachers assigned to music, physical education, industrial education, and art. Extra Prep is defined as any course that is listed under a different course name and number, has a different course description, and requires different lesson plans.
C. The Xxxxx Professional Education Association and the Xxxxx Board of Education agree that it is the responsibility of all staff to be knowledgeable of changes in the law that have an affect on their position. Because of the critical nature of compliance with the law, notification concerning changes in the law will be shared between the Association and the Board.
Associated Enterprises Where
(a) an enterprise of a Contracting State participates directly or indirectly in the management, control or capital of an enterprise of the other Contracting State, or
(b) the same persons participate directly or indirectly in the management, control or capital of an enterprise of a Contracting State and an enterprise of the other Contracting State, and in either case conditions are made or imposed between the two enterprises in their commercial or financial relations which differ from those which would be made between independent enterprises, then any profits which would, but for those conditions, have accrued to one of the enterprises, but, by reason of those conditions, have not so accrued, may be included in the profits of that enterprise and taxed accordingly.
