Step 5 – Failure at any step of this procedure to communicate the decision on a grievance within the specified time limits shall permit the aggrieved employee to proceed to the next step.

FRINGE BENEFITS
EDUCATIONAL IMPROVEMENT: Eligibility for reimbursement is entirely dependent upon the employee’s meeting the State requirements for permanent specialist certificate and the completion of his Bachelor’s Degree. The Board agrees to reimburse employees the tuition cost of up to nine (9) graduate credits per year. The completion date of the course will determine the contractual year in which the employee is eligible for reimbursement.
Reimbursement shall be based on Rowan College’s current rates for graduate courses of study and the presentation of evidence of a grade of B or better or passing in a pass/fail course to the Superintendent of Schools not later than April 30 for courses taken during the Fall Semester and not later than December 1 for courses taken during the Spring Semester and the Summer months. The maximum payment by the Board shall not exceed $18,412.00 for the 2009-2010 school year, plus 5% per year for the remaining two years of this agreement. This money will be disbursed on a first-come basis until funds are depleted.

a. To tenured BANTS who are in graduate programs
b. To tenured BANTS who are in certificate programs
