In cases of overloaded classes which exist during the second week, assistant principals will make every effort to reduce the additional students by removing first the last student enrolled in the class. In the event of an emergency situation, such as irresolvable schedule conflicts or class overloads, it may be necessary to remove a student(s) other than the last student enrolled; however, all efforts will be made so class enrollments conform to the contractual limits by the end of the second week of each semester. 5. In cases of overloaded classes that exist at the end of the fifth week during the first semester or fourth week of the second semester, the teacher of the overloaded class will receive thirty dollars ($30) per day for each day of the overload after the teacher has informed the assistant principal in charge of scheduling of the overload through written notification. 6. In addition, after the fifth week during the first semester or fourth week of the second semester, staff with classes which may be overloaded may send students to the assistant principal for scheduling at the beginning of the sixth week during the first semester or fifth week of the second semester. The staff member(s) should verify with the assistant principal in charge of scheduling that an overload exists prior to sending any students from class. The procedure that the assistant principal uses to remove students is outlined in Section D(4) above.
