Anticipated Temporary Disability Leave. a. The School Employer shall grant a teacher covered by this Contract a temporary disability leave for disabilities arising from major surgery, childbirth, physical illness, mental illness, and like disabilities, which cause a disability for more than three (3) weeks. b. Where disability can reasonably be anticipated, as in the case of a scheduled operation or childbirth, the teacher is to provide the School Corporation with a written notice of the planned request for leave at least fifteen (15) days prior to the first day of the leave. Such notice is to contain: 1) The exact date on which the leave is to begin, Tentative Agreement 2) The reason for the leave, and 3) The anticipated length of the leave, except in cases of emergency. c. In case of a temporary disability leave, the teacher is to furnish the School Corporation a written statement from the physician indicating: 1) The date of the final day that the physician would recommend that the teacher work due to the disability. 2) When the disability ends, a statement that the teacher is physically able to return to work. d. A teacher shall be granted a temporary disability leave for up to one (1) year or intervals of less than one (1) year. A teacher granted a temporary disability leave for one (1) school year, shall notify the Office of the Superintendent of his or her intent to return to teaching by April 1st of the calendar year in which he or she plans to return to teaching at the start of the school year. e. A leave should begin and end with the break in a grading period or as near that time as is practical or possible. f. The teacher shall notify the Office of the Superintendent in writing if the teacher plans to use sick leave days. In the event the teacher chooses not to use accumulated sick leave days, the leave will be considered to be without pay or benefits. If the disability continues beyond the duration of the accumulated sick leave, the teacher may choose to continue at his or her own expense all fringe benefits which were applicable at the time of commencement of the leave. This same option exists for a teacher choosing not to apply sick leave accumulation. g. If a teacher is unable to return to teaching duty after a period of one (1) year on advice of the attending physician and qualifies for Social Security disability, or shows no evidence of returning to work, the teacher’s employment with the School Corporation will be terminated. h. A teacher intending to return to teaching shall notify the Office of the Superintendent as soon as he/she has recovered from his/her disability. Unless waived by the School Corporation, the teacher shall not be entitled to return to teaching duties unless at least two (2) calendar weeks’ notice is given by the teacher of the intention to return to work. i. Upon return to teaching, the teacher will be assigned to the same position held as when leave began or to a similar position.
