3120.01 - JOB DESCRIPTIONS

The Board of Education recognizes that it is essential for District and employee accountability for each staff member to be fully aware of the duties and responsibilities of his/her position. Job descriptions document and describe the essential functions for professional staff positions and thereby promote organizational effectiveness and efficiency. Therefore, the District Administrator shall maintain a current comprehensive, and coordinated set of job descriptions for professional staff positions.

Job descriptions shall be approved by the District Administrator and will be maintained In the District Office

As long as the provisions of the job descriptions are not inconsistent with Board policies, or with Federal/State law, they will be considered to be an extension of the policy manual and binding upon all employees.

During the hiring process, the current job description for the position for which the individual(s) interviewing shall be reviewed with the candidate. The emphasis during the review shall be placed upon the essential functions of the position.

Upon employment by the Board, the staff member shall receive a copy of the current job description for the position for which s/he has been employed. The employee’s immediate supervisor shall review this job description with the staff member as part of the employment orientation process.

From time-to-time, the Board further recognizes that the District Administrator may find it necessary to revise job descriptions.

Following the revision of a job description, staff members who hold the positions for which the essential functions are described in that revised job description shall be provided access to the updated version and the opportunity to discuss the revisions therein with their immediate supervisor.

In addition, the District Administrator shall prepare administrative guidelines necessary for the proper implementation of this policy.
