Non-School Employment
4008.1The Board and the representative union acknowledge that the primary responsibility of certified staff is to instruct to the best of the certified staff’s ability. Employment of a certified staff by any person or firm other than the Board is permissible to the extent that such employment in no way conflicts with the certified staff’s regular scheduled hours of Board employment, or impairs the performance of the certified staff’s regularly assigned duties. Self-employment shall be considered subject to the provisos of this policy. Violations of any of the terms of this policy or of any other statute or policy attributable to such employment will be considered cause for such action as the Board is authorized to take, up to and including dismissal from employment.
