POLICY: LEAVE WITHOUT PAY Policy #42
CREATION DATE: September 2015
REVISION DATE:
EFFECTIVE DATE: January 2016
***********************************************************************************
Work schedules have been established giving consideration to the student/teacher ratio,
workloads, and coverage requirements. Team member absences have a detrimental effect on
these conditions. While absence for illness and emergency situations may happen from time to
time, team members will not be granted leave beyond their accrued time off as a standard
practice. Emergency circumstances will be considered on a case by case basis. Leave without
pay will only be granted in extenuating circumstances. Leave without pay must be approved in
advance of the requested start date of the leave by your immediate supervisor. Requests must
be submitted in writing. Team members will receive notice of the approval/denial for leave of
absence in writing.
Leave without pay which has not been approved by your supervisor will be considered a
voluntary termination.
