1. The District will identify and advertise all known vacancies. Vacancies will be announced in the school where the vacancy occurs first. If no one within the school asks to transfer to the vacant position, the vacancy will then be opened to all applicants. 2. All vacancies shall be advertised to current employees, and employees will make transfer requests according to the following guidelines: a. Known vacancies will be posted for all current employees to consider by email to staff@dcsd.org. Job openings will be published in the local newspaper and on the District web site, and a copy sent to each school site. b. A letter requesting transfer and a resume giving evidence of appropriate endorsements and requested skill requirements should be submitted to the District not later than five (5) school days following the email postings. All transfer requests, whether approved or not, will be answered in writing. After an employee has submitted one transfer letter and resume, requests for transfer to another specific opening can be accomplished by calling the Assistant Superintendent over that school no later than five (5) school days following the email postings. Information from the first transfer request will be forwarded to other schools upon the request of the employee. c. Using a common set of criteria such as personnel files, requested qualifications, experience, etc., Principals will review all letters of request for transfer and select the candidates to be interviewed. First consideration shall be given to applicants who are currently employed by the district. If a choice must be made among applicants currently employed by the district who have been determined by the Principal to be equally well qualified for the position, the employee with the greatest length of continuous and current contract services in the district shall be appointed. When possible, notification of the new assignment will be made before the end of the current school year.
