File Attachment:
Declaration of Need 2016-2017.pdf
Summary: Regulations from the Commission on Teacher Credentialing require the District to submit an annual Declaration of Need form indicating the number of teachers we anticipate hiring under emergency permits for the 2016-2017 school year. In the past a Declaration of Need form was filed with each emergency permit submitted by the district. The annual filing will eliminate paperwork both for us and for the Commission. Attached is the form indicating the number of teachers we anticipate hiring or rehiring with emergency permits, the credentials and subject areas in which we may have need to hire. We have anticipated numbers by credential type larger than our anticipated need so as not to request from the Board a second identical action later in the year. The number of teachers hired or rehired under emergency permits includes substitutes, current employees required to reapply for a permit, and summer school teachers.
Funding:
Fiscal Impact There is no fiscal impact. All positions which would be filled by individuals holding an emergency permit are within position control and budget.
