This agreement is made and entered into this ______ day of ________, 20___, by and between Child
Development Schools, Inc. (CDS) and ___________________________________,
___________________ (the employee). (name)
(ID#)
1. By signing this agreement, the employee accepts employment from CDS for the 2012-2013
school year as a Pre-K Lead Teacher with an annualized pay rate of $__ __, __ __ __. __ __. The
pay rate is conditional upon receipt of verification of the employee’s teaching credentials as listed
in section 11.3 of the Georgia Voluntary Pre-kindergarten Program, 2012-2013 School Year Pre-
K Providers’ Operating Guidelines. Until such documents are presented, the rate shall be $58
daily. In addition, payment of the salary is contingent upon the receipt of funds from the Bright
from the Start, Georgia’s Department of Early Care and Learning.
2. The CDS Pre-Kindergarten calendar is planned to coincide with the local county/city public
school district calendar; however, there may be differences. For purposes of this agreement, refer
to contract attachment for the full and complete employment period beginning and ending dates,
and number of working days. The beginning and ending dates of this period may be adjusted,
however, to accommodate any unplanned school closures. Teachers are expected to work all
scheduled work days, including teacher work days. Any teacher who does not work all scheduled
work days forfeits his or her right to payment for the day(s) not worked, unless any such days are
covered by the leave policy. This would include any days eliminated due to budget restraints.
3. Employees will be paid a daily equivalent of their annualized salary from the “Contract Start
Date” thru “Pay Ends” on the contract attachment (less unworked days with no available leave
time). In addition, a portion of each pay will be deferred to pay for an estimated fifty-two (52)
calendar weeks (adjusted for employees not working the full school calendar). On a regularly
scheduled school day, in accordance with the CDS Pre-kindergarten calendar, wages will be paid
for an equivalent of 8 hours. The actual scheduled work hours may be more or less than 8 hours
per day and teachers are expected to work the full scheduled hours. Any difference to the
scheduled hours will be posted to vacation leave. Worked hours may combined with leave hours
to constitute the full daily equivalent. Employees must sign in and out each day in accordance
with their school’s policy. Employees will receive their deferred pay at the conclusion of the paid
school year. The deferred pay will be paid bi-weekly until the deferral is exhausted. Deferred
pay will also be utilized to continue elected benefits during the summer.

equally with his/her assigned Pre-Kindergarten Teacher/Paraprofessional. The intent is to
develop the teaching skills of the Paraprofessional and avoid under utilizing her/him with only

frequent performance reviews conducted by the School Director. The employee also understands
that Bright from the Start will conduct periodic on-site evaluations and failure to abide by CDS/

11. By signing this agreement, the employee agrees and understands she/he is an employee of CDS.
12. By signing this agreement, the employee agrees and understands that she/he is an “at-will”
employee of CDS, and nothing in this agreement should be interpreted as altering the employee’s
“at-will” status, or be construed to create a contract that guarantees employment for a certain
period of time. Either party to the agreement may terminate the agreement for any reason, with or
without cause, upon two weeks written notice.
13. If CDS terminates the employment of any employee, CDS may, in its discretion, also suspend
that employee’s classroom duties during the two week, paid notice period. If CDS terminates an
employee for misconduct or for cause, CDS is not obligated to provide that employee with two
weeks notice. If an employee is terminated by CDS, or resigns his or her employment prior to the
end of the complete employment period, their pay will be reviewed to ensure they receive the
proper pay equivalent to the actual number of days the employee worked during the school year.
The employee will be paid for any deferred salary on a biweekly basis at the conclusion of the
contracted/paid school year.
14. If the employee wishes to terminate this agreement, he or she must provide the School Director
written notice of his/her desire to resign at least two weeks prior to his or her date of resignation.
Failure to provide a two week notice, work as scheduled, or failure to behave professionally in the
classroom during the two-week notice period, may subject the employee to a penalty in an
amount of up to $1000.00 for such failures. This penalty amount will automatically be withheld
form the employee’s pay.
I have read and understood all sections of this agreement. This contract is binding upon signing by both
parties with each page initialed by employee.
