The termination of employment shall not occur until the procedures set forth in paragraphs B. and C. have been fully met.

PROFESSIONAL DUES OR FEES AND PAYROLL DEDUCTIONS. A. Any teacher who is a member of the Association, or who has applied for membership, shall sign and deliver to the Board an assignment authorizing deduction of professional dues in the Association which sum shall be established by the Association.

Pursuant to such authorization, the Board shall deduct 1/21st of dues per check, beginning in September and ending in June of each year. Any teacher who shall not perform services for twenty (20) contract days or greater fraction thereof shall have his/her yearly dues reduced by 1/10 for each twenty (20) days or greater fraction, except where the failure to perform services was the result of the teacher taking any leave of absence with pay or sick leave provided for in this Contract.

Any teacher working less than one-half (½) of a teaching schedule shall pay one-half (½) of the dues or service fee.

In the event that a teacher shall not authorize payment through payroll deduction, as provided in the preceding paragraph, the Board may cause the termination of employment of such teacher.
