1) Dismissal time: The schedule which was approved by the superintendent is as follows:
Employees arrive............................................................. 8:10 AM
Employees report to assigned stations............................ 8:15 AM
Pupils arrive.................................................................... 8:20 AM
Classes end.................................................................... 3:00 PM
Students dismissed ........................................................ 3:05 PM
Once students are safely dismissed, teachers/certificated staff can depart at 3:05 PM.
The district has confirmed to us that the payroll system is set to adjust any punch from 3:05 PM to 3:10 PM as if the staff punched out at 3:10 PM. If something different is happening at your school, send it to mmaillaro@newarkteachersunion.com!
2) Organization Day - If you were not given the contractual required 5 hours to set up your classroom/office this week,
FOLLOW THE RSVP TO MANDATE PROCESS! Ask your administrator via email when you will be given SELF-DIRECTED, UNINTERRUPTED time to set up your classroom/office next week, or will they be paying you to do it after school. No one should be receiving any kind of walkthrough or write up for not being prepared if they were not given this contractual required time.
Administrators who are confused or unsure of any of the above issues can feel free to confirm them with Labor Relations.
