2.08 Collective Bargaining Agreements

Collective bargaining and any provision of a collective bargaining agreement may not preclude  the school board from carrying out its constitutional and statutory duties related to the following:

1. Providing incentives to effective and highly effective teachers; 

2. Implementing interventions and strategies to address student performance and  attendance; 

3. Implementing required student discipline; 

4. Implementing school safety plans and requirements; 

5. Implementing staff and student recognition programs; 

6. Distributing correspondence related to daily operations of schools and/or the  district to parents, teachers, and community members; 

7. Providing required notice of information readily available on the district’s website  related to the school board or district operations; or 

8. The school district’s calendar. 

Any provision of a collective bargaining agreement which is ratified by the School Board  and affects collective bargaining members shall prevail over any School Board rule  conflicting with the agreement. The School Board rule shall be deemed to be amended  during the term of the agreement. If such agreement expires prior to ratification of a  subsequent agreement, the provisions of the expired agreement shall be in effect until  ratification of a subsequent agreement or approval by the legislative body by a  Resolution of Impasse.
