Administrative Personnel Other Than the Superintendent
Duties and Authority
The School Board establishes District administrative and supervisory positions in accordance with State law. This policy applies to all administrators other than the Superintendent including without limitation, Building Principals. The general duties and authority of each administrative or supervisory position are approved by the School Board, upon the Superintendent's recommendation, and contained in the respective position's job description. Administrative staff members may be suspended with or without pay as a disciplinary measure. In the event of a conflict, State law and/or the administrator’s employment agreement shall control.
Qualifications
All administrative personnel shall be appropriately licensed and shall meet all applicable requirements contained in State law and Illinois State Board of Education rules.
Evaluation
The Superintendent or designee shall evaluate all administrative personnel and make employment and salary recommendations to the Board.
Administrators shall annually present evidence to the Superintendent of professional growth through attendance at educational conferences, additional schooling, in-service training, and Illinois Administrators’ Academy courses, or through other means as approved by the Superintendent.
Administrative Work Year
The administrators’ work year shall be the same as the District's fiscal year, July 1 through June 30, unless otherwise as stated in the employment agreement. In addition to legal holidays, the administrators shall have vacation periods, personal and sick leave as stated in the employment agreement. Vacation periods, personal and sick leave shall be approved by the Superintendent.
Compensation and Benefits
The Board and each administrator shall enter into an employment agreement that complies with Board policy and State law. The terms of an individual employment contract, when in conflict with this policy, will control.
