IX.C. Resolution for Honorable Dismissal of Certain Educational Support Personnel - ACTION
Description:
Illinois School Code requires that Educational Support Personnel (ESP) be notified 30
calendar days before the end of the school year if they are to be honorably dismissed for the following school year. ESP are honorably dismissed when there is an anticipated decrease in number of positions needed or particular type of service. This will affect our Certified Nurse Assistant (CNA) as we are replacing that position with the approved LPN positions, and part-time ESP positions as we can not yet predict need and placements that will be driven by student enrollment and Special Education needs. I move to approve the Resolution Authorizing the Honorable Dismissal of Educational Support Personnel Due to Reduction in Force.
