Staffing Timelines 2017

Building Allocations Staffing allocations will go out to principals on January 27th. Staffing will be returned to HR by February 21. Staffing cuts result in displacements. Volunteers are considered first. If there are no volunteers, then displacements are made by seniority.

Displaced Process 17.3B March 17-April 7 Teachers that are displaced are placed on a list in order of seniority. A master list of known vacancies will be shared with each displaced teacher.

Teachers will select their top three choices of positions from the master vacancy list based on seniority and certification requirements. The SEA office will receive displaced choices and put people into positions based on seniority and certification.
