The Board declares its intention to give full consideration to present staff members in all vacancies in which they have expressed an interest.
1. It is agreed that any vacancy occurring during the current school year shall only be filled on a temporary basis for the remainder of that school year. By May 1 of each year, a list of all vacancies shall be posted in a designated area in each administrative unit. Any teacher with proper qualifications may, within seven (7) calendar days of May 1 and all subsequent postings until August 1 of each year, apply for and shall be granted an interview before such vacancy is filled, with the exception of when reductions in grade levels/subject areas occur in a building allowing first right of refusal to displaced staff for any open positions in his/her individual building. Vacant positions will be posted for three (3) work days after August 1 and prior to the first reported student instructional day of each year.
2. Any teacher requesting transfer between administrative units shall notify the Assistant Superintendent of Human Resources by April 30 for transfer in the subsequent year. Involuntary transfers within a building will occur prior to extending consideration to voluntary transfer requests. Before vacancies are filled, the qualifications of each teacher who has requested transfer shall be reviewed.
3. It is agreed that any teacher making written request to be assigned a position whose FTE is less than their current assignment has no guarantee of a future increase in FTE except as provided by the process defined elsewhere in this Article.
4. A vacancy shall be defined for purposes of this contract as a position presently unfilled, one to be open in the future or a new position, and which has no teacher on leave of absence or layoff status with the claim to the position.
B. Since the frequent transfer of teachers from one school and/or grade level to another is disruptive to the educational process and interferes with optimum teacher performance, the parties agree that unrequested transfers of teachers are to be minimized.
VACANCIES, PROMOTIONS AND TRANSFERS. A. A "vacancy" shall be defined as any position within the bargaining unit either newly created or a present position that is not filled.

A vacancy within the bargaining unit to be filled shall be posted within seven (7) calendar days from the date of vacancy and the employees shall be given five (5) working days time in which to make application to fill the vacancy or new position. A vacant bus run shall also be posted as provided in this paragraph and shall be awarded at a meeting as provided in Article X, B. 1 .
C. If a vacancy occurs while there are employees on layoff, the position shall be posted and those on layoff shall be notified of such vacancy by certified mail. The employee shall keep the Administration office appraised of his/her latest address.
D. The Board shall have the right to fill the vacancy temporarily until a transfer or promotion of an employee has been completed. This employee shall receive the pay rate of the vacancy or his/her present pay rate, whichever is higher.
E. The following format will be used to advertise vacant positions:
1. Type of work
2. Starting date
3. Rate of pay
4. Hours to be worked

F. When a vacancy occurs, it shall be awarded to the most senior applicant from within the bargaining unit who possesses the necessary skills and physical requirements for that specific job classification; provided, however, that a vacancy in the mechanic classification may be awarded to the applicant, internal or external, who the Board, in its sole discretion, determines is best qualified for the position. If an employee is currently working in the classification, or has worked in the classification for the District, he/she shall automatically be considered to possess the necessary skills. To possess physical requirements the employee must be physically able to perform the work.
G. Failure to follow this Article shall be subject to the grievance procedure. However, award of a higher-rated classification based on necessary skills and physical requirements may be processed only through Level III of the grievance procedure.
H. The parties agree that un-requested transfers are to be minimized and avoided whenever possible. In making voluntary transfers the wishes of the individual will be considered to the extent that these considerations do not conflict with the best interests of the school system.
VACANCIES, PROMOTIONS AND TRANSFERS. A. The Board recognizes that it is desirable in making assignments to consider the interest and aspirations of the teachers.

The application shall set forth the reasons for transfer, the school, grade or position sought and the applicant’s qualifications. Such requests shall be renewed once each year to assure active consideration by the Board.

The teaching staff will be notified of such vacancies by email and the postings will be available for three (3) school days.

During the summer vacation the teaching staff will be notified of such vacancies by email and the posting will be available for three (3) workdays.
C. If a vacancy occurs after the start of the school year, the vacancy is to be posted according to the Master Agreement.

D. The Board shall prepare and furnish to the Association, on an annual basis, a current district-wide seniority listing for teachers. The Association shall have the right to request and receive information from time to time regarding changes in such listing. The seniority list shall be posted in each building, with copies furnished to the Association by November 1. It shall be the responsibility of each employee to promptly check the seniority list. If an employee or the Association does not believe that the employee’s seniority, certification or endorsement is correctly shown on the list, the Superintendent, or his/her designee, shall be notified, in writing, of the alleged error within ten (10) working days of the list’s final date of positing.
