Eagerly anticipated by some and dreaded by others, along with spring weather comes staffing season. The cycle is the same every year -- some schools will need more teaching staff, others will have a surplus and some stay pretty much the same. The good news this year is that the Board doesn't anticipate declaring anyone redundant to the Board.
For part-timers looking to increase their teaching time, the jury is still out on when that will happen in this year's staffing process. The Operations department is still monitoring numbers and indicated that we should know by Easter weekend whether part timers can apply to increase their assignment in Transfer Round 1, Round 2, or in a special Round 3. As soon as the decision is made, I will let members know on this blog and through an email to members through Stewards. School administrators will also be notified by the Operations department.
If you are declared surplus, or even if you think it is possible you might be declared surplus, you are encouraged to contact the local office for advice and options. It can be a confusing process and it's best to know your rights and responsibilities up front.
More information will be posted over the next week regarding important dates in this year's staffing process, figuring out the seniority list and other staffing-related issues. Remember, we are just a phone call away!
