Should further reduction in force be necessary, the District will first reduce staffing levels in the area or areas affected on the basis of performance in accordance with NRS 288.151. Should further reduction in force be required, the District will then reduce staffing levels on the basis of the disciplinary and/or criminal record of staff members in accordance with NRS 288.151. Next, should additional reduction in force in an area or areas be required, the District shall reduce staffing levels based on the following factors in accordance with NRS 288.151: o Whether the teacher is employed in a position which is hard to fill; o Whether the teacher has received national board certification; o The type of licensure held by the teacher; and o The type of degree attained by the teacher, and whether the degree is in the subject area related to his or her position. Should two (2) or more teachers be similarly situated during any of the processes set out within this provision, the District will give preference to the more senior teacher, based on the teacher’s seniority in the District. Seniority shall mean the number of days of service commencing with the first day on which the teacher begins working for the Eureka County School District. The Association and the District shall agree upon a seniority list to convert the existing list to the new basis of computing seniority. The new list shall not be subject to appeal but may be adjusted for error upon mutual consent of the District and the Association.
