Additional Professional Assignments, or APAs, are additional coverages that you may be asked to provide to supervise students around the school building or by covering another class.  APAs are a half period in length and not to be split into different parts of the day.  No teacher should be asked to, or offer to do, two APAs in one day.   Some teachers, including PORs, part-time teachers, and coop teachers receive a reduction in their APA maximums.  No APA should conflict with a teacher receiving a 40 minute uninterrupted lunch.
