4120.08 - EMPLOYMENT OF PERSONNEL FOR CO-CURRICULAR/EXTRA-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES
The Board of Education may find it necessary to employ, on a part-time basis, coaches or activity sponsors who are not members of the professional staff. Such part-time employees may be members of the District's classified staff or individuals from the community or nearby areas.
The Board authorizes the Superintendent to recommend candidates for employment by the Board act for the Board in employing such part-time staff.
Each coach or activity sponsor shall hold a valid Pupil Activity Program Permit issued by the State Board of Education under R.C. 3319.303(A), have any other necessary qualifications, have been properly interviewed, and shall sign an employment contract which includes the conditions of employment, compensation arrangements, and contract termination procedures. Such qualifications shall include completion of a sudden cardiac arrest training course approved by the Department of Health, in accordance with R.C. 3319.303. The qualifications shall also include completion of a student mental health training course approved by the Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services. The mental health training course may be combined with or part of another training course. Such training must be completed each time the individual applies for or renews a Pupil Activity Program Permit. An employee must submit a copy of an active Pupil Activity Program Permit to both the Treasurer/CFO and the Superintendent before the Board will pay any compensation.
No staff member employed in a position for which licensure or permit is required may be paid until evidence of such appropriate licensure or permit valid for the effective dates of such services has been received by the Superintendent and transmitted to the Treasurer.
Personnel must also pass a background check performed by the Bureau of Criminal Identification and Investigation and the Federal Bureau of Investigation and be enrolled in the State's Rapback System as required by State law (see Policy 4121).
The Board may renew the contract of any nonlicensed individual, currently employed by the Board for one (1) or more years, without first offering the position held by that individual to employees of the District who are licensed individuals or advertising the position as available to any qualified licensed individuals who are not currently employed by the Board unless otherwise prohibited by a collective bargaining agreement.
