. A person employed in an administrative position that is not
part of the classified service, who has not previously acquired
tenured status as a faculty member in the same district and who is
not under contract in a program or project to perform services
conducted under contract with public or private agencies, or in other
categorically funded projects of indeterminate duration, shall have
the right to become a first-year probationary faculty member once his
or her administrative assignment expires or is terminated if all of
the following apply:
(a) The process by which the governing board reaches the
determination shall be developed and agreed upon jointly by
representatives of the governing board and the academic senate, and
approved by the governing board. The agreed upon process shall
include reasonable procedures to ensure that the governing board
relies primarily upon the advice and judgment of the academic senate
to determine that the administrator possesses the minimum
qualifications for employment as a faculty member. The process shall
further require that the governing board provide the academic senate
with an opportunity to present its views to the governing board
before the board makes a determination and that the written record of
the decision, including the views of the academic senate, shall be
available for review pursuant to Section 87358.
(b) Until a joint agreement is reached pursuant to subdivision
(a), the district process in existence on January 1, 1989, shall
remain in effect.
(c) The administrator has completed at least two years of
satisfactory service, including any time previously served as a
faculty member, in the district.
(d) The termination of the administrative assignment is for any
reason other than dismissal for cause.
(e) This section shall apply to every educational administrator
whose first day of paid service in the district as a faculty member
or an administrator is on or after July 1, 1990.
