You Are Entitled To A
30-Minute Duty-Free Lunch

A minimum of thirty minutes duty-free lunch shall be provided each day including rainy day schedule (MUSD-MTA Contract Article IV. Section H. page 5.)

No meeting or activities may be scheduled during bargaining unit members’ thirty minute duty-free lunch time. If a meeting is scheduled during lunch and following the thirty minutes duty-free time, that time is considered meeting minutes within the board day.

Contact a Building Rep or the MTA office if you believe the thirty minute duty-free lunch right and law is being violated.

Involuntary Reassignment
Due Date Is May 15

Whenever possible, principals must announce involuntary reassignments no later than Monday, May 15. If you have not heard you have been reassigned by May 16 you can assume that you will remain in your current assignment. Changes that cannot be controlled by the principal such as fluctuations in enrollment and alterations in the educational program could cause reassignments later in the year. (Article XIII. C2.a.)
