Classified employees are employees who are not administrators or employees in positions which require an Iowa Department of Education teaching license and who are employed to fulfill the duties listed on their job description on a monthly or hourly basis. Classified employees will include, but not be limited to, educational associates, custodial and maintenance employees, clerical employees, food service employees, bus drivers, and temporary help for summer or other maintenance. The position may be full-time or part-time.
It is the responsibility of the superintendent to establish job specifications and job descriptions for classified employee positions.
Classified employees required to hold a license for their position must present evidence of their current license to the board secretary prior to payment of wages each year.
Teacher associates have a bargaining unit contract with the district. The provisions in the bargaining unit control the provisions with the teacher associates in any place that these policies reference an area within the bargaining unit contract.
