The foregoing sentence to the contrary notwithstanding, the Contractor acknowledges and agrees that the School District and only the School District determines whether to open or close schools in the event of, e.g., inclement weather, and when the School District determines to open its schools, the Contractor shall deliver all required Substitute Staff as set forth in this Contract.

14. Long Term Substitutes. The School District shall in general handle responsibilities for long term substitute arrangements, defined as absences reasonably known of in advance and likely to last longer than three (3) months. Where long term substitute needs arise, the School District shall retain responsibility for covering the absence. If a substitute position starts out as a day-to-day or other less-than-long-term assignment, and has to be extended such that it then may qualify as long term, then the Contractor shall not later than the eighty-ninth (891h) day of the absence provide a new Substitute Staff to cover the need.

15. Certified Teachers. The Contractor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assign Substitute Staff in conformity with each individual's certification and the School District's daily substitute staffing needs.
