                          files on the system.

                          The LSBA policies against discrimination apply fully to the email system and use of
                          the Internet, and any violation of those policies is grounds for discipline up to and

                          they contain materials inappropriate under those policies such as offensive materials
                          concerning sex, race, color, national origin, religion, ancestry, age or disability.
                          Likewise, no email messages shall be  created,  sent, received or, if inadvertently

                          sexually connotative or profane jokes or stories. Additionally, the Internet and email
                          system shall not be used for any form of gambling.

                          No User is to load software onto an LSBA owned computer without permission of the

                          authorized.

                          Any User who discovers misuse of the email system or  Internet should notify the
                          appropriate department head or Executive Director. Any department head who
                          becomes aware of misuse is required to report such misuse to the Executive Director.

                   F.     Employee Annual Leave
                          It is the policy of the LSBA to allow employees to carry forward no more than one
                          year’s worth of accumulation of vacation time into the next year. Unused vacation time
                          in excess of this amount shall be lost.

                          The maximum amount of annual leave paid to a terminating employee shall be the amount
                          of leave carried forward into the subsequent year, plus the amount of accrued but unused
                          leave earned during the year of termination.
