Absence Policy. Parent shall pay in full to the Center the weekly/monthly Fee for each week/month Child is enrolled in the Center’s Program, regardless of whether Child is absent for any reason, including but not limited to illness or vacation. When possible, Center requests that Parent informs school in advance of any intended absence.
Absence Policy. Employee shall abide by the Company’s Absence Policy as in effect from time to time during the Term of this Agreement.
Absence Policy. Students are expected to be present and on time every day. Permission for "special absence" (short or long) must be prearranged. Parents may call or write a note to the principal explaining the situation beforehand. A student is responsible for work missed because of absences. Parents are encouraged to schedule vacations during regular school breaks. Missing several days of classes is detrimental even to the strongest student and causes additional hardship to the teacher. A student will not be given credit for a class or the school year if he/she has been absent more than 10% of the school year, which is 19 or more absences of the required 180 school days. For a student in Upper School, 19 or more absences of a specific class will prevent that student from receiving passing credit for that class. Repeated unexcused absences may be considered grounds for summer school, suspension, retention, or even dismissal. A student who is in attendance for at least four hours of a school day is considered present for the day and is not assessed an absence.
Absence Policy. A reasonable attempt shall be made to provide substitutes for all teaching areas including special area bargaining unit members. In the event that no regular substitute is available, a principal may ask a bargaining unit member to cover the class. Bargaining unit members may refuse this request. A bargaining unit member shall be paid at a rate of fifteen dollars ($15.00) per hour for class coverage. Payment shall be included in the next regularly scheduled pay. If a substitute cannot be obtained, the principal will, under normal conditions, cover the class. This section shall not apply to Board employees who provide substitute coverage for an entire day, as opposed to one class period. Those employees shall receive their regular pay for the day. If a Board employee who provides substitute coverage extends their contracted day to provide that coverage, the employee will be paid their daily rate for any additional time beyond their contracted day. Teachers will be offered substitute class coverage prior to other employees being offered coverage opportunities.
Absence Policy. A. All sick calls are counted absences toward progressive discipline for excessive absenteeism, except legally- protected absences. An Employee shall be required to submit a physician’s certificate for absences in excess of five (5) consecutive working days, stating that the Employee has been under the physician’s care and is able to return to work. Doctor’s appointments will be counted as absences unless the Employee submits medical verification to their Supervisor that they are required to have pre-scheduled medical appointments. This verification must include the name of the medical practitioner and how many appointments are anticipated, if known, and must be submitted at least forty-eight (48) hours before the appointment begins. This exception is designed for an Employee who must undergo pre-scheduled medical treatments such as, but not limited to, prenatal care, physical therapy and chemotherapy, or who is required to be absent as a result of a chronic illness or disease as verified by a licensed medical practitioner.
B. Absences will be counted as follows:
1. One (1) day equals one (1) absence.

(1) additional absence.
3. A partial day (any part of the employee’s workday) equals one-half (0.5) absence.
C. Progressive Discipline: Progressive discipline shall be applied for excessive absenteeism. An Employee maintaining a balance of greater than sixty (60) hours of Sick Leave shall not be subject to discipline under this Section.
1. When an Employee has had twelve (12) counted absences during a floating 365 calendar day period they will be given formal counseling.
2. Seventeen (17) counted absences within a floating 365 calendar day period will result in a written warning to the Employee for violation of the attendance policy.
3. Twenty (20) counted absences within a floating 365 calendar day period may subject the Employee to discharge unless number 5 below has been met regardless of the Employee’s request.
4. An Employee who is absent from work a total of twenty (20) or more days in a floating 365 calendar day period may be subject to discipline if a pattern of abuse is demonstrated.
5. After one hundred eighty (180) calendar days without a counted absence, all prior Employee’s counted absences will be rescinded upon request. The Employee must be actively working during this one hundred eighty (180) calendar day period.
Absence Policy. The full fee will be charged for all absences. Fees are similar to tuition and are based on enrollment, not attendance. No refund, credit, or makeup day is provided for children who are absent due to illness or vacation. Parent shall notify Provider of any absence as soon as the Parent knows that Child is unable to attend on a particular day.
