- A.
Illness of Injury
-
- 1. All Teachers
are allowed a minimum of twelve (12) sick days of absence per
school year for illness without loss of salary. Sick leave accumulation
is unlimited.
-
- 2. Sick leave is
to be interpreted as absence due to illness or injury on the
part of the Teacher, any member of the Teacher's immediate family,
or any designated person sharing the Teacher's residence on a
permanent basis. Immediate family is defined as parents, spouse,
brothers, sisters, children, grandparents, grandparents-in-law,
grandchildren, parents-in-law, brothers-in-law, sisters-in-law,
daughters-in-law, sons-in-law, and legal guardians.
-
- 3. Teachers shall
notify the District sub-caller at the Teacher's earliest convenience
of a pending sick day. The District may require documentation
from a physician licensed to practice medicine, or a properly
authorized physician assistant, as a basis for pay during leave
after an absence of three (3) consecutive days for personal illness
or injury, or as it may deem necessary in other cases. If the
District does require documentation as a basis for pay during
leave of less than three (3) consecutive days, the District shall
pay the expenses incurred by the Teacher in obtaining the certificate
and provide written reason for such request to the Teacher and
to CTC.
