Superintendent Recommendations:
	1. Memorandum of Understanding:
Approve a Memorandum of Understanding with the New Bremen Teachers Association to modify Article 9.A.7.  This would only be effective 03/01/2019 through the completion of the 2018-19 school year.

Article 9.A.7:
Teachers will be expected to observe adjusted working hours on days when school is delayed. Teachers will not be expected to report to duty on days when school is closed due to inclement weather. Teachers will report to duty (up to 5 days effective 3-1-2019) from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm on days where school is closed due to inclement weather for the remainder of the 2018-2019 school year.

2. If the teacher is unable to report safely to work, then he/she shall call his/her appropriate supervisor and discuss options to reach a solution. Possible solutions may be (but are not limited to): use of personal day, make up the time according to an agreement reached and approved by the appropriate supervisor, or make arrangements to report to work later and extend the day beyond 3:00 pm.

The number of days scheduled shall not limit the Districts ability to require additional days worked to ensure compliance with the state minimum number of hours of instruction per year.
