Sullivan County Schools May Be The First School System In The State To Have An Approved Memorandum Of Understanding From The New Collaborative Conferencing Process. The Subject Of The M.O.U. Was Grievance Procedures For Employees And Saw No Major Changes Except A Final Appeal To A Neutral Third Party. It Addresses How Teachers Can Be Disciplined For Things Such As Habitual Tardiness As Well As Defines The Process For Principals And Other Administrators To Handle Things Such As Bus Duty That Go Beyond The Prescribed Seven-Hour, 15-Minute Teacher Day. Teachers Can Receive A Verbal Reprimand, Written Reprimand, Written Warnings And In Theory A Termination Of Employment.
