Teaching Staff Members Clause Samples

The 'Teaching Staff Members' clause defines the roles, responsibilities, and expectations for individuals employed as educators within an institution or organization. It typically outlines who qualifies as teaching staff, their required qualifications, and the scope of their duties, such as classroom instruction, curriculum development, and student assessment. By clearly delineating these aspects, the clause ensures that both the institution and its teaching staff have a mutual understanding of job requirements and standards, thereby promoting consistency and accountability in educational delivery.
Teaching Staff Members. The Board agrees to reimburse tenured Faculty for maximum of twelve (12) credit hours per year at the rates per credit hour charged by Rowan College of New Jersey plus an additional Twenty-Five ($25.00) per semester to defray additional costs charged by the college or university. Subject to the approval of the Chief School Administrator with the concurrence of the Principal, undergraduate courses involving new educational methods such as computer technology, audio and visual presentations and other such class room techniques that will lead to improved classroom instruction may be included on the same basis as graduate courses, but will not be included in computing any increase in salary scale unless they satisfy requirements for an advanced (Master's or Doctor's) degree. Courses of study directed to the improvement of instruction in the teacher's current field, include but are not limited to, obtaining a master's degree in the present field, administration, guidance, education and educational psychology, or reading. The Chief School Administrator may approve courses outside the teacher's field if the Chief School Administrator feels that the courses will benefit the school system. Courses taken for initial certification in areas in which a Faculty member was hired to teach are not recognized for reimbursement. Faculty desiring recognition on the salary guide for courses taken must file a transcript with the Chief School Administrator by October 1st of the year in which the credit is claimed. Tuition reimbursement shall be capped at a maximum of $35,000. The twelve (12) credit limit remains for tenured staff. Non tenured staff may take up to zero (0) credits under this provision during their first year of employment, three (3) credits in their second year, and six (6) credits in their third year. The Board has the discretion to reimburse tuition expenses of non tenured staff, outside of the above-mentioned cap and above the above credit limits to suit needs of district. Board shall credit the reimbursement cost for year in which course begins.
