(1) 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.
(2) (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.
(3) 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.
(4) 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.
