Staff cuts possible at SEDOM center SECTION 2 - PAGE 3jJ*LAINDEALER - FRIDAY. APRIL 27, 19S4 By Cliff Ward Plalndealer news service Although most of the 43 teachers the Special Education District of McHenry County (SEDOM) dismissed last month will be re-hired next year, districts may be forced to fire tenured teachers within several years, the SEDOM board president 'said. Because of discrimination laws, SEDOM traditionally gives the pink slip to all non- Area homes tenured teachers in the spring of the school year, according to executive board president Charles Lapp. However, the district is simply running out of non-tenured teachers, he said. Lapp described the move as "technical"-to keep SEDOM on the legal side of discrimination laws. Since the district won't have a good idea of what enrollment and teacher needs are until sometime this summer, and since the board can't legally keep one non- tenured teacher and fire another, all are routinely fired, he said. Within several years, however, SEDOM may not have as many non-tenured teachers to fire and may have to cut into tenured staff, based on seniority, he said. But tenured SEDOM teachers have seniority over a teacher who has taught the same amount of time in any other of the county's 21 school districts, Lapp noted. That would create a situation where a qualified, tenured SEDOM teacher would have to be given a job in a county school district over a regular district teacher, he said. At a SEDOM board meeting last month, the board dismissed 43 teachers, including seven staff members with less than one year with the district, 10 part-time staff members, 10 staffers completing one full year and 10 staff members com pleting two full years. general News Teachers dinner planned The McHenry High School Teachers Association will sponsor its third annual spring dinner for all past and present employees of the McHenry High Schools.
