Both parties agree that these proceedings will be kept as informal and confidential as may be appropriate at any level of the procedure.

C. Procedure
      1. Since it is important that grievances be processed as rapidly as possible, the number of days indicated at each level should be considered as a maximum and every effort should be made to expedite the process. The time limits specified may, however, be extended by mutual agreement.

                        SICK LEAVE

                        A. 1. All ten-month employees shall be entitled to ten (10) days sick leave each school year as of the first official day of school. All twelve-month employees shall be entitled to twelve (12) sick leave days each school year as of the first working day of each fiscal year. Unused sick leave shall be accumulated from year to year with no maximum limit. A doctor’s note shall be required after two (2) days absence.
                        2. Sick leave days shall be accumulated in whole day increments, unless employee becomes ill during the work day requiring departure from work, in which event one-half day credit shall be given if employee remains at work at least four hours.
                        3. n.j.s.a. 18A:30-1 defines sick leave as absence from his or her post of duty because of personal disability due to illness or injury or exclusion from school by the school district’s medical authorities on account of a contagious disease or being quarantined for such a disease in his or her immediate family. Normally, absence for a doctor’s appointment is not within the scope of sick leave unless the same is necessary to prevent employee from being disabled from performing his or her normal duties, for example: treatment for an ongoing medical condition that, without such treatment, would disable the employee from working. To aid in the resolution of any differences, reference is made to the settlement by the parties in Arbitration arising from a grievance, bearing PERC Docket Nos. AR 2002-276 and 555, and the letters of May 21 2003 from Sandra Zaccaria, then president of FTEA to Tom Myers, UniServe Representative, and of May 24, 2003, from Samuel J. Serata, Esq., then School Attorney for the Board to Thomas G. Myers, UniServe Field Representative.
                          B. Upon retirement, a unit employee shall be paid for accumulated sick leave under the following conditions:

                          1. Notify the School District in writing no later than November 1st of the year prior to the fiscal year in which retirement is to occur.
                            2. The employee must have accumulated no less than sixty(60) days of accumulated sick leave to be eligible for this benefit.

                            3. Compensation shall be $50 for each day per teacher; $25 for each day for each secretary or full time instructional aide. A maximum of $10,000 will be paid to each teacher and a maximum of $5,000 to each eligible secretary or full time instructional aide.

                            4. This benefit shall be payable on a date selected by the retiring employee during the school fiscal year (July 1-June 30) following the year of retirement. However, if the employee states a case of bonafide hardship, the benefit may be payable at an earlier date upon application to the Board.

                            5. Payment for accumulated sick leave, if deferred after the effective date of retirement, and if the death of the retiree occurs, shall be made to the retiree’s estate.

                            C. An extended paid leave of absence may be granted to employees who have exhausted accumulated sick leave through lengthy illness. For an employee to receive the difference between his or her regular daily salary and that of a substitute, such request must be made in writing and may be granted by the Board on a case by case basis.

                                ARTICLE XIV

                                TEMPORARY LEAVES OF ABSENCE

Each teacher, aide, and ten-month secretary shall receive three (3) days per year personal leave for legal, business, or personal household matters which require absence during the work hours. (For 12 month secretaries, the number of days is three) No reason need be stated in applying for such leave provided application is made at least two (2) days in advance. If less than a two day minimum application, then a specific bona fide reason must be given that precludes attendance at work. Reasons must be supplied for any days applied for after May 15th through September 1st of each year under the same conditions except that leave will be granted for the graduation of a child or spouse. Unused personal days shall be converted to accumulated sick leave each year.

                                                                                            A. Non-tenure teachers will have three (3) formal observations, prior to April 30th of each school year, followed by a conference with the Building Principal. The Principal will give the teacher a written evaluation; a copy of which will be kept by the Principal and one placed in the teacher’s file.
                                                                                              B. The written observation should include the teacher’s strong points as well as his weak ones. Suggested improvements should be given to the teacher in the area the Principal considers weak.

The Principal must explain what improvements the teacher must make in order to be considered for rehiring.
                                                                                                  D. By March 15th, if the teacher is not going to be recommended for rehiring, the teacher will be so informed by the Building Principal. At that time the teacher will have a conference with the Building Principal to discuss non-renewal of his contract.
                                                                                                    E. If the teacher is not satisfied with the Principal’s decision, the teacher may appeal the decision, within ten (10) days to the Chief School Administrator who will re-examine the case.
                                                                                                      F.

Said proceedings shall be completed and the Board’s determination presented to the teacher no later than May 15th. Should the Board fail to comply with the procedure outlined in Article XXI, the Board shall be deemed to have offered to that teacher continued employment for the next school year. If the teacher desires to accept such employment, the teacher shall notify the Board of such acceptance in writing on or before June 1st , in which event such employment shall continue as provided for herein.

                                                                                                      ARTICLE XXII

                                                                                                      A. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to deny or restrict any employee or the Board such rights as they may have under New Jersey Laws or other applicable Laws and regulations. The rights of employees and the Board hereunder shall be deemed to be in addition to those provided elsewhere.
                                                                                                        B. No employee shall be disciplined, fined or suspended without pay without just cause. Any such action by the Board or any of its agents shall be subject to the grievance procedure except when such disposition is properly to be decided before the N.J. Commissioner of Education. Nothing herein is to be construed to mean that the Board relinquishes any of its rights relative to exercise of its managerial prerogatives within the limitations of statutory provisions.

                                                                                                        C. All Teachers

If any teacher is felt to be incompetent by the Building Principal to the point of early dismissal, he is entitled to a conference with the Building Principal regarding reasons for early dismissal. If the teacher is not in agreement, he may appeal to the Chief School Administrator. If the teacher is not satisfied with the decision of the Chief School Administrator, the teacher is entitled to a hearing before the Board.

                                                                                                          D. Nothing in this Article shall be construed to mean that the Chief School Administrator, Board or any of their agents or representatives, including Principals, may not discuss general and routine matters related to the educational and operational process with the employee without prior notice, provided, however, that the intent and purpose of the conferences is not contemplated to support a change or changes which could reasonably be expected to eventuate in the dismissal of the employee or adversely affect his salary.
                                                                                                          ARTICLE XXIII

A maximum of $1,300.00 per teacher for the school year will be granted annually (non-accumulative), payable one calendar year after completion of each course provided the teacher is still an official employee of the district. Annually is defined as that period from September 1 to August 31. Up to $50.00 of the $1,300.00 may be used for miscellaneous related fees or expenses such as parking permits, laboratory fees, etc.

                                                                                                            2. Secretaries and Instructional Aides

It is understood that final approval resides with the Board or its designated agent.

                                                                                                            AGENCY SHOP

                                                                                                                A. If an employee does not become a member of the Association during any membership year (i.e., from September 1 to the following August 31) which is covered in whole or in part by this Agreement, said employee will be required to pay a representation fee to the Association for that membership year. The purpose of this fee will be to offset the employee’s per capita cost of services rendered by the Association as majority representative.

                                                                                                                B. Amount of Fee

                                                                                                            1. Notification
                                                                                                                        Prior to the beginning of each membership year, the Association will notify the Board in writing of the amount of the regular membership dues, initiation fees and assessments charged by the Association to its own members for that membership year. The representation fee to be paid by non-members will be determined by the Association in accordance with the law.

                                                                                                            2. Legal Maximum
                                                                                                                        In order to adequately offset the per capita cost of services rendered by the Association as majority representative, the representation fee should be equal in amount to the regular membership dues, initiation fees and assessments charges by the Association to its own members, and the representation fee may be set up to 85% of that amount as the maximum presently allowed by law. If the law is changed in this regard, the amount of the representation fee automatically will be increased to the maximum allowed, said increase to become effective as of the beginning of the Association membership year immediately following the effective date of the change.

                                                                                                            C. Deduction and Transmission of Fee
                                                                                                              1. Notification

                                                                                                                          Once during each membership year covered in whole or in part by this agreement, the Association will submit to the Board a list of those employees who have not become members of the Association for the then current membership year. The Board will deduct from the salaries of such employees, in accordance with paragraph 2 below, the full amount of the representation fee and promptly will transmit the amount so deducted to the Association.

                                                                                                              2. Payroll Deduction Schedule
                                                                                                                          The Board will deduct the representation fee in equal installments, as nearly as possible, from the paychecks paid to each employee of the aforesaid list during the remainder of the membership year in question. The deductions will begin with the first paycheck paid:
                                                                                                              a. Ten (10) days after receipt of the aforesaid list by the Board; or
                                                                                                                b. Thirty (30) days after the employee begins employment in a bargaining unit position, unless the employee previously served in a bargaining unit position and continued in the employ of the Board in a non-bargaining unit position or was on layoff, in which event the deductions will begin with the first paycheck paid ten (10) days after the resumption of the employee’s employment in a bargaining unit position.


                                                                                                                3. Termination of Employment
                                                                                                                            If an employee who is required to pay a representation fee terminates employment with the Board before the Association has received the full amount of the representation fee to which it is entitled under this Article, the Board will deduct the unpaid portion of the fee from the last paycheck paid to said employee during the membership year in question.
                                                                                                                        4. Mechanics
                                                                                                                            Except as otherwise provided in the Article, the mechanics for the deduction of representation fees and the transmission of such fees to the Association will, as nearly as possible, be the same as those used for the deduction and transmission of regular membership dues to the Association.
                                                                                                                    5. Changes
                                                                                                                            The Association will notify the Board in writing of any changes in the list provided for in paragraph 1 above and/or the amount of the representation fee and such changes will be reflected in any deductions made more than ten (10) days after the Board received said notice.

                                                                                                                5. New Employees
                                                                                                                            On or about the last day of each month, beginning with the month this Agreement becomes effective, the Board will submit to the Association a list of all employees who began their employment in a bargaining unit position during the preceding thirty (30) day period. The list will include names, job titles and dates of employment for all such employees.

                                                                                                                ARTICLE XXV
