If a substitute teacher is called back for the same teacher in a continuous assignment within five (5) working days that substitute teacher’s term of assignment and pay will continue as if there was no break in service.

If a substitute teacher’s assignment is interrupted by the substitute teacher’s personal illness and (s) he subsequently returns to continuing assignment, this shall not be considered a break in service.

Substitute teachers will not be intentionally terminated from continuing in an assignment to prevent achievement of long term status.
