A copy of the written grievance shall also be filed with the Director of Certificated/Licensed Personnel. If such grievance is not submitted in writing to the immediate supervisor within fifteen (15) days following the act or condition which is the basis for the grievance, such grievance is no longer grievable. If the grievance is not within the authority of the immediate supervisor to resolve, with the approval of the Director of Certificated/Licensed Personnel the written grievance may be filed directly at Step 2 of the grievance process and bypass the Step 1 filing. The written grievance shall provide a concise statement of the facts upon which the grievance is based and include the identification of the aggrieved party or parties; the nature of the grievance; the provision(s) of the current written Agreement involved in the grievance; and the nature of the redress sought by the aggrieved party or parties. The grievance form, included in this Master Contract in Appendix A, will be used to process any grievance. Within ten (10) days after receipt of a written grievance, the immediate supervisor shall respond in writing to the grievant(s) concerning his/her final position or decision regarding the grievance. A copy of the supervisor’s response shall be sent to the Director of Certificated/Licensed Personnel.
Step 2. If the grievance is not resolved in Step 1 to the satisfaction of the grievant(s), such grievant(s) may appeal the decision of the immediate supervisor to the Director of Certificated/Licensed Personnel. Such appeal must be filed, in writing, within ten (10) days after the unit member receives the written decision from the immediate supervisor. If either party requests a conference, the Director of Certificated/Licensed Personnel shall confer with the grievant(s). If a conference is held, the Director of Certificated/Licensed Personnel shall provide a written decision concerning the grievance to the grievant(s) and the immediate supervisor within ten (10) days of the conference. If no conference is held, the Director of Certificated/Licensed Personnel shall provide a written decision concerning the grievance to the grievant(s) and the immediate supervisor within ten (10) days following receipt of the appeal.
