Teaching Overload Clause Samples
POPULAR SAMPLE Copied 1 times
Teaching Overload. All parties acknowledge that Unit A teachers carry a five class teaching load under the existing contract. From time to time a unique situation may arise when the district has additional classes that need to be taught beyond those that can be assigned to the traditional teaching loads of the existing faculty. In such circumstances one or more teachers – based upon proper license, expertise, experience and/or teaching availability during the given time slot when the course(s) need to be taught – may be approached about interest in teaching the overload course(s). It is acknowledged by all parties that no teacher can or will be required to teach an overload course(s) and that all such assignments are on a volunteer basis only. When a teacher volunteers to teach one or more overload class, the employee will be paid one-fifth more of the employee’s existing salary per overload class. As overload salaries are considered part of the normal contractual annual salary, and adhere to the Unit A and Unit C contractual provisions, the appropriate percentage of Massachusetts Teachers’ Retirement will be withheld from this additional salary amount as is the case of all supplemental salaries listed in the existing aforementioned contracts.
Teaching Overload. (i) A Faculty member may choose, but shall not be compelled, to teach overloads in any term. In no case will a Faculty member teach more than nine credits as overloads per twelve-month period. Faculty members may only teach two overloads in one term with prior written approval by the ▇▇▇▇. All overloads must be communicated in writing to the Office of the ▇▇▇▇ by the Department Chair.
Teaching Overload. If a teacher shall teach more than the normal teaching load as set forth in this article 44 and is permanently assigned an additional class, he/she shall receive additional compensation at the rate of 45 one twenty fourth (1/24) of the base contract salary for Middle and Elementary 5/6 schools per term/marking 46 period, and one eighteenth (1/18) of the base contract salary for High School per term/marking period.
Teaching Overload. (i) A Faculty member may choose, but shall not be compelled, to teach overloads in any term. In no case will a Faculty member teach more than nine credits as overloads per twelve-month period. Faculty members may only teach two overloads in one term with prior written approval by the ▇▇▇▇. All overloads must be communicated in writing to the Office of the ▇▇▇▇ by the Department Chair.
(ii) A Faculty member accepting an overload teaching assignment may elect for one of two possible methods of recompense. In accepting an overload assignment, faculty members may • Elect to be paid at the current overload rate of pay (see Article 35:06 and 35:07). Overloads will be paid in one lump sum at the end of the contract; or • Elect to bank three credits for teaching relief at a future date. Prior approval must be arranged with the Divisional Chair and the Academic ▇▇▇▇. The maximum number of banked credits may not exceed 9 credits at any time.
(iii) When a Faculty member wishes to use banked teaching credits for a full research term with no on-campus presence for service or other faculty responsibilities, then the Member must provide a full research proposal to the ▇▇▇▇ by April 15th of the full calendar year before such a research term would take effect. By May 15th, and following consultation with the Department and Division, the ▇▇▇▇ shall reply in writing to this application and shall give reasons should the application be denied. A full research term must in all cases be justified by a corresponding increase in research, must be mutually beneficial to the University and the member, must be acceptable to the Department and shall not jeopardize the delivery of the academic programme. A full research term is in no way an automatic entitlement. In the case of dispute, the Peer Review Committee will review the matter, and provide a written recommendation to the ▇▇▇▇.
Teaching Overload. When a faculty member teaches in excess of twelve (12) credit hours during a semester, the department Chair or ▇▇▇▇ may approve the overload. The compensation for an overload is addressed in Article 36 (COMPENSATION).
Teaching Overload. A. In the event there is a teaching assignment that cannot be filled by staff and it would be unreasonable to hire additional staff, a teacher may be asked to teach part or all of his/her preparation time or in lieu of a supervisory period. For teachers assigned to an elementary teaching position, within the student day for every 25 minutes of classroom instructional time, a minimum of five additional minutes of preparation time shall be provided to each licensed teacher. Preparation time shall be provided in one or two uninterrupted blocks during the student day. Exceptions to this may be made by mutual agreement between the district and the exclusive representative of the teachers. This does not apply to the occasional use of substitutes as described in Article XII, Section 6.
B. Such assignment as an addition to a teacher's schedule will be done only upon mutual consent of both the teacher and the School District.
C. In the event the teacher agrees to the "overload," the compensation will be based on 1/7 per year of the teacher’s rate of pay for teachers at the secondary level. For an elementary teacher, the compensation will be determined by dividing the number of minutes of instructional time that exceed the maximum limit as described in Subp. A in this section by the total maximum number of minutes of instruction allowed. For example, 300 minutes of instruction requires 60 minutes of preparation time. If a teacher is assigned to teach 325 minutes and does not have 65 minutes of preparation time, the overload payment will be 25/300 or 1/12 of the salary.
D. This provision does not apply to independent study or to special areas such as media, music, counselor, social worker, etc. Any extra class meeting less than five (5) hours per week will be prorated.
E. After a principal’s signature and approval, Teachers monitoring and managing a student taking their course as an independent study will earn $500 per semester. This $500 is for any combination of 1-5 students taking that class in any one semester. Teachers will be paid $100 for each student (after the fifth student) per semester. This clause is intended for "District-caused" conflicts in schedules, not just student choice. This number includes students seen at any time of the day and is not connected to any particular hour or period of the day.
F. Middle school or high school teachers teaching four or more separate courses in a semester will be paid an extra $500 per semester to account for extra pl...
Teaching Overload. Teaching overload occurs when more than five (5) regular courses or the equivalent per academic year are taught pursuant to Article 18.02 (b) or more than six (6) regular courses or the equivalent per academic year are taught pursuant to Article 18.02(c). The employee shall be compensated for teaching overload. Teaching overload must be approved by the Vice-Principal Academic.
