PERSONNEL <br />5040 <br />Page 1 of 2 <br /> <br />Bonneville Joint School District No. 93 <br />CERTIFIED STAFF TRANSFERS <br /> <br />The Board recognizes that certified staff should be placed in the school and/or department <br />that best meets the educational needs of students. Therefore, internal adjustment <br />transfers and personnel shifts may be used to maintain a proper balance of experien ce <br />and specialized competence among the schools of the District when vacancies exist or <br />there are changes in the enrollment of grades, classes, schools, or organizational levels. <br />Consideration will be given to a qualified employee’s placement preference w hen <br />circumstances make it necessary to transfer certified staff. However, an assignment shall <br />be based upon the qualifications of the candidate and the philosophy and needs of the <br />District. Nothing in this policy shall prevent the reassignment of a staff member during the <br />school year. <br /> <br /> <br />Guidelines <br /> <br />Voluntary Transfers <br /> <br />1. A list of all known job vacancies, together with required endorsements and skill level, <br />will be compiled and published on the Bonneville Joint School District No. 93 <br />Website. <br /> <br />2. Using a common set of criteria such as but not limited to personnel files, requested <br />qualifications, experience, etc., building principals will review requests for transfer. <br /> <br />3. Teachers currently assigned to a school, who are interested in job vacancies that <br />open after August 1, shall obtain prior approval from their building administrator <br />before any transfer will be approved. <br /> <br />Involuntary Transfers <br /> <br />1. The curricular and program needs of students should be the primary guiding factor in <br />making decisions regarding involuntary transfer assignments. <br /> <br />2. Involuntary transfers shall not result in the assignment of the teacher to a position for <br />which he/she is not qualified by academic preparation or license. <br /> <br /> <br />DEFINITIONS <br /> <br />Involuntary Transfer: A District-initiated transfer from one school to another that <br />becomes necessary due to enrollment or program changes. <br /> <br />Teacher: shall apply to any employee of the District who holds a certificate issued by <br />the Idaho State Board of Education and who is emp loyed in a teaching or administrative <br />position, below the rank of superintendent. <br />
