2021 New York Laws EDN - Education Title 4 - Teachers and Pupils Article 61 - Teachers and Supervisory and Administrative Staff 3014-C - Teachers' Rights as a Result of a School District Taking Back Tuition Students.

§ 3014-c. Teachers'  rights  as  a  result of a school district taking   back tuition students. 1. As used in this section, a "sending  district"   shall  mean  a school district which previously sent students to another   school district on a tuition basis  pursuant  to  section  two  thousand   forty  of  this  chapter, and a "receiving district" shall mean a school   district which  provided  the  educational  program  for  students  from   another  district  on  a  tuition basis pursuant to section two thousand   forty of this chapter.2. In any case in which a sending district assumes  the  education  of   students  formerly  provided  by  a  receiving  district,  each  teacher   employed in the education of such students by such receiving district at   the time of such take back by the sending district shall  be  considered   an  employee  of  such  sending district, with the same tenure status he   maintained in such receiving district.3.  If  the  number  of  teaching  positions  needed  to  provide  the   educational  services required by such sending district is less than the   number of teachers eligible to be considered employees of  such  sending   district as provided by subdivision two of this section, the services of   the  teachers having the least seniority in the receiving district whose   students are taken back by the sending district within the  tenure  area   of  the position shall be discontinued. Such teachers shall be placed on   a preferred eligible list of candidates for  appointment  to  a  vacancy   that   may   thereafter  occur  in  an  office  or  position  under  the   jurisdiction of the sending district and the receiving district  similar   to  the one such teacher filled in such receiving district. The teachers   on such  preferred  list  shall  be  reinstated  or  appointed  to  such   vacancies   in   such  corresponding  or  similar  positions  under  the   jurisdiction of the sending district or the receiving  district  in  the   order  of  their  length  of  service in such receiving district, within   seven years from the date of the abolition of such office or position.4. For any such teacher  as  described  in  subdivision  two  of  this   section  for  salary,  sick  leave and any other purposes, the length of   service credited  in  such  receiving  district  shall  be  credited  as   employment time with such sending district.5.  In  the  event  that  more  than  one sending district assumes the   education of students formerly provided by a  receiving  district,  then   each  teacher  employed  in  the  education  of  such  students  in such   receiving district at the time of  such  take  back  by  more  than  one   sending  district, shall select the particular sending district in which   he shall  be  considered  an  employee,  with  all  of  the  rights  and   privileges  provided  by  the  other  provisions  of  this section. Such   selection of the particular sending district by such teacher  is  to  be   based upon each teacher's seniority in such receiving district, with the   right of selection passing from such teachers with the most seniority to   such  teachers  with  least seniority. Any such teacher who is unable to   obtain a teaching position in any  such  sending  district  because  the   number  of  positions  needed to provide the services required with such   sending district are less than the number of  teachers  eligible  to  be   considered  employees  of  such  sending districts, shall be placed on a   preferred eligible list in all such sending districts in the method  and   with all of the rights provided by the other provisions of this section.6.  This  section  shall in no way be construed to limit the rights of   any of such teachers described in this  section  granted  by  any  other   provision of law.
