Column Placement/Movement Sample Clauses

Column Placement/Movement. 1. Employees may move one column only each contract year, with the exception of attainment of a qualifying degree. a. Attainment of a qualifying master’s degree or doctorate degree will result in placement in the appropriate degree column regardless of the number of columns the employee changes in that year. b. When the professional employee earns an educational specialist degree without previously earning the Master’s degree, the employee will be placed in the MS + 36 column. This will be treated as a degree movement. c. Anyone earning an Ed Specialist degree after earning a master’s degree that was not credited by the district for salary schedule placement will be placed based on the following criteria: • Hours must be graduate education hours earned after receiving a valid license or applicable certification. • Placement will occur only upon completion of the degree. • The minimum placement will be the MS column. • The MS column will be counted as 30 graduate hours and graduate hours beyond 30 will count toward additional column moves. • Hours that are between those needed for specific columns will be reserved and count toward future column movement based on the five year recency requirement for professional development points and graduate education hours. 2. Employees will be placed on the MS column of the salary schedule only after the completion of a Master’s Degree in Education or another job-related field has been verified per Policy GBZE (Negotiated Agreement). Placement in the Doctorate column requires completion of the doctorate degree. 3. Movement to columns beyond the MS column may be requested using any combination of college credits, professional development hours/points, and/or CEUs that qualify for salary movement (see guidelines below). Requests for movement to BS+12 and BS+24 columns require at least half (6) college credits, plus any combination of additional college credits, professional development hours/points and/or CEUs that qualify for salary movement to total the number required for movement.
