Leaves Certified employees may be granted leaves
of absence without pay for up to one
(1) year. A professional employee returning
from this extended leave shall be assigned
to a position at the same school and
the same teaching field, if available,
as that which s/he held before commencement
of the leave. Leaves of absence without pay for professional
development employment opportunities
that are mutually beneficial to the employee
and the District may be granted by the
Superintendent for up to one (1) year.
As a general rule, the District will
not grant requests in which the employee
wishes to take the same, a very similar,
or an administrative position in another
school district. A professional employee
returning from this extended leave shall
be assigned to a position at the same
school and the same teaching field, if
available, as that which s/he held before
commencement of the leave. All rights
of renewable contract status, retirement,
accrued sick leave, salary schedule placement
and other benefits provided herein shall
be preserved and available to the professional
employee upon his or her return to the
District. Professional employees who
participate in District-provided insurance
programs may continue to participate
during the leave of absence by paying
the premiums for such insurance coverage.
Payments must meet COBRA regulations. For all extended leaves, the employee
shall notify the Superintendent of his
or her intent to return or not to return
to the District by March 1 or by a date
mutually agreed to by the Superintendent
and the employee. Failure of the employee
to meet the notification of intent deadline
will release the District from any obligation
to continued employment of the employee. Back to

Leave A professional employee shall be allowed
a leave of absence for child rearing
purposes for up to one (1) year without
pay. Upon return from such leave, the
professional employee shall be provided,
if appropriate, with a position similar
to the one held prior to the commencement
of the leave. All rights of renewable
contract, retirement, accrued sick leave,
salary schedule placement, and other
benefits provided herein shall be preserved
and available to the professional employee
upon his/her return to active duty with
the District. Professional employees who are participating
in District-provided insurance programs
may continue to participate during the
leave of absence by paying the premiums
for such insurance coverage. Military
Leave Employees who are inducted into the
U.S. Armed Forces or who are reserve
members of the U.S. Armed Forces obligations
in compliance with state and federal
laws. These employees may use accrued
personal/vacation leave but are not required
to do so. At the conclusion of the leave,
employees generally have the right to
return to the same position held prior
to the leave or to positions with equivalent
seniority, pay and benefits. The District
will pay the difference between military
pay and regular wages/salary for up to
ten (10) days of military leave in any
one year. The Superintendent, or designee,
may extend the number of days that may
be allowed for military leave. Whenever
the daily compensation rate for military
service is less than the daily compensation
for assigned position, the district will
pay the difference to the employee. Employees are asked to complete the
Leave of Absence Request form and copy
of Active Duty Orders along with leave
paper work. Employees are to notify their
supervisors as soon as they are aware
of the military obligation. Questions regarding the District’s
military leave policy, applicable state
and federal laws and continuation of
benefits should contact the Employment
and Benefits department. Back to
