Synopsis
|
Grievant is employed by Respondent as an aide. Grievant applied for an Instructional Aide II/III/IV/Early Childhood Classroom Assistant Teacher (“ECCAT”)/Bus Aide position. While Grievant was the most senior applicant in the aide classification, she did not hold an ECCAT credential from the West Virginia Department of Education, nor had she ever held an ECCAT position. Another applicant, Intervenor, who was already employed in an ECCAT position, and held an ECCAT credential, was selected for the position. Grievant asserts that she is entitled to the position as she had the most seniority in the aide classification. Respondent argues that its selection of the other applicant for the ECCAT position was proper pursuant to statute. Grievant failed to prove her claim by a preponderance of the evidence. Therefore, the grievance is DENIED.
