Beginning with the second semester of the
2022-2023 school year, K– 6 bargaining unit members who provide emergency
coverage for students in addition to continuing their regular assignment shall
be provided compensation. Such compensation shall be divided equally among all
bargaining unit members supporting the coverage, and shall be at a daily rate
of $160 per day. Such compensation shall
only be provided beyond the days required for such teachers through the building
emergency substitute plan and only after two emergency coverages per month.
Such compensation shall be provided approximately at the middle and end of each
semester. The District shall remove from the PAB calculation an amount of days
equal to the amount of days compensated through this process. Mandated service
providers shall be excluded from providing emergency substitute coverage.
