Background: Under Article 14.1.4.3, if a RIF-initiated termination of employment is to be effective with the start of any given school year, any classified employee whose employment is to be terminated shall receive notice of that termination by the last day of that employee’s work assignment for the current school year. Upon notification of termination prior to the end date of the employee’s current assignment, the 60- calendar day notification period may include non-workdays during the planned academic break. If a RIF-initiated termination of employment notification does not occur prior to the end date of the affected employee’s work assignment (i.e., the start of the employee’s academic break), the 60-day notification period shall commence no sooner than the first day the employee is scheduled to return to work for the upcoming school year.
Recommendation: The Superintendent recommends the Board of Education adopt the Resolution.
