The Kentucky Department of Education, with assistance from the Kentucky
Personnel Cabinet, shall adopt a salary schedule for teachers in the Kentucky
School for the Deaf and the Kentucky School for the Blind. The salary schedule
shall be the same as salary schedules in effect in local school districts in counties
containing a city of the first class and shall conform to the requirements for a single
salary schedule as defined in KRS 157.320, except the salary schedule shall not
limit the number of years of experience for a certified employee who transfers to the
school.
(a) Certified teachers in the Kentucky School for the Deaf and the Kentucky
School for the Blind shall have the same statutory employment status and
benefits as certified teachers in the public schools.
(b) If a teacher qualifies for and requests a tribunal under KRS 161.790, the
Attorney General shall appoint the members.
Once a teacher has been selected for hiring at the Kentucky School for the Blind or
the Kentucky School for the Deaf, the Department of Education and the Personnel
Cabinet shall complete the hiring process within two (2) weeks.
A certified teacher employed at one (1) of the schools on July 12, 2006, whose job
description does not include outreach responsibilities shall not be involuntarily
assigned to work on a permanent basis outside the county in which the employing
school is located.
Nothing in KRS 18A.115 or 163.032 shall result in a loss of any leave accrued by a
certified teacher employed prior to July 12, 2006, by one (1) of the schools. Accrued
leave may be taken in accordance with the policy of the school.
The Kentucky Department of Education, with assistance from the Kentucky
Personnel Cabinet, shall adopt a salary schedule for administrators for the Kentucky
School for the Deaf and the Kentucky School for the Blind. In considering the rate
of pay and the requirements of KRS 18A.110(7)(b), the department and the cabinet
shall consider rates that are based upon the duties and responsibilities of the
positions and that are competitive with rates for similar or comparable services in
Kentucky school districts. The salary schedule, which shall be computed prior to
September 1 of each year, shall be based on two hundred sixty (260) days per year.
