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.
