HIGHLY QUALIFIED REQUIREMENTS. A. If a teacher is assigned to a position for which he/she is not Highly Qualified under federal and state law, a conference will be held between the teacher and the Superintendent or designee at the time of the assignment to discuss Highly Qualified status and mutually agree on a plan to enable the teacher to become Highly Qualified in his/her new assignment. B. If a member chooses to become Highly Qualified by passing an Ohio Assessment for Educators (“OAE”), the Board will reimburse the member for the cost of the OAE, upon passage, so long as the member meets the Highly Qualified requirements as a result of passing the test. This provision will apply so long as HQT is required by State and/or Federal law.
