Teacher’s Preparation Period Sample Clauses

Teacher’s Preparation Period. A teacher's preparation period is considered to be a part of the normal school workday, and as such, a teacher should be able to devote this time to lesson preparation, professional conferences and other functions leading to more effective teaching.

In such cases when a regular teacher has been assigned to substitute during a preparation period, the teacher shall be compensated as specified in Appendix A. Each teacher will substitute during his/her preparation period on the first two (2) occasions requested without compensation.
