PARAPROFESSIONAL PERSONNEL HEALTH EXAMINATIONS
The Board shall require all
paraprofessional personnel to have a medical examination at the
beginning of their employment. As a precondition of employment, the
medical examination must include drug testing and the physician shall
provide a statement that the candidate is free from drugs, or a
written explanation as to the reason that drugs are being used shall
be provided to the Assistant Superintendent for Personnel and
Evaluation.
Evidence of freedom from communicable
tuberculosis is a condition of employment for all full-time and
part-time employees and all day-to-day substitutes employed by the
Board. Such evidence shall be filed with the employee's personnel
record and shall be renewed every three years.
The Board may also require additional
examinations when an employee appears to be in less than normal
physical or mental health. All health examinations shall be made by
physicians acceptable to the Board. Pre-employment examinations and
other examinations as may be required shall be at the expense of the
Board.
