School Closures The District may close schools for academic purposes or reduce programming due to public health, safety, severe weather or any other purpose as determined by the District. The District shall not owe Provider any compensation for times when services of Therapists are canceled, declined, or not required due to closure, reduction in programming, or exclusion of Therapists due to health risk assessment screenings or any other reason, and Provider agrees to indemnify District for Therapist claims arising from all such actions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent required by Section 10-20.56(d-15) of the School Code (105 ILCS 5/10-20.56(d-15)), when enforceable under law, the Parties understand that the District may determine it is required to pay Provider the daily, regular rate of pay and benefits for Therapists for any day of school closure or e-learning day if such closure precludes the Provider’s employees from performing its regularly scheduled duties and employees would have reported for work but for the closure, unless the day is rescheduled and the employees will be paid their daily, regular rate of pay and benefits for the rescheduled day when services are rendered. The Parties agree such payment constitute full satisfaction of Section 10-20.56(d-15). As a precondition to these payments being made, Provider shall provide an invoice for the foregoing pay and benefits costs; however, Provider will not include such pay and benefits costs for any school closure or e-learning day on any invoices until the last invoice of the school year in order to allow the District the opportunity to determine if the day will be rescheduled. When a payment is to be made by the District under this provision, Provider represents and warrants that it shall pay its employees their daily, regular rate of pay and benefits for any such school closure or e-learning day. Upon request, Provider shall provide the District with certified payrolls as evidence of compliance with this section. The District retains sole discretion to determine whether Section 10-20.56(d-15) applies to this Agreement or any day of school closure and, if the District determines such law is applicable, the District retains the discretion to determine if and when a school closure day is rescheduled. For purposes of this section, “school closures” shall not include holidays or other days of closure reflected on the District’s school calendar for which Provider is not scheduled to provide services under the Agreement.
Emergency School Closing 24.1 If as determined by the Superintendent, circumstances of weather, energy crisis, power failure, lack of water or heat, work stoppage, epidemic or other civil or natural emergencies, including threats or acts of violence, make it impossible or unsafe to open the schools or to keep open a school or schools, then the Superintendent shall act in such emergency situations to preserve and protect the lives and property of pupils and staff personnel. Such absence(s) shall not result in loss of pay or accumulated leave days to the teacher. 24.2 When an emergency confronts the schools of Polk County, notification of the closing of the schools shall be released for broadcast over appropriate public media as soon as possible.

Programming Phase Schematic Design Phase: 2.2.1.3. Design Development Phase:
School Closings 1. When regularly scheduled student attendance days are canceled due to weather or other emergencies all employees designated as 230 day or teacher work year + days to equal 230 (twelve month) employees shall be expected to work their regular shift. 2. When regularly scheduled student attendance days are canceled due to weather or other emergencies, employees who are less than 230 day or less than teacher work year + days to equal 230 (12-month) employees generally do not report to work and shall not be paid for the day if not worked. For said employees, pay for up to a maximum of 6 days may be received if an employee converts a sick day that was earned, prior to such a day that was cancelled, pursuant to Article 18, E. 3. If the days are required by law to be made up for State Aid or contracted obligations, such employees not working shall be scheduled to work on and be paid for the days later designated by the official school calendar, determined solely by the Board and in respect to other collective bargaining agreements, as make-up hours. If the canceled days do not count as days of instruction under the State Aid Act and the Board determines the canceled days should be rescheduled, such employees who did not work the canceled days shall be scheduled to work days designated on the official school calendar, determined solely by the Board, and be paid for the rescheduled days after working said days. Any employee who has begun work prior to the school closing will be paid the employee’s hourly rate for time worked prior to cancellation. In no event will employees receive less than two hours pay if they report for work prior to cancellation. As an exception to the above-referenced practice, less than 230 day or less than teacher work year + days to equal 230 employees working more than the teacher work year may voluntarily work when regularly scheduled student attendance days needing to be made up are canceled due to weather or other emergencies pursuant to the stipulations that follow: a. The supervisor, after receiving approval of the Human Resources department administration, may approve of the employee working the day; b. The day worked shall not result in any future non-workday that is a student attendance day; c. Approval of such a workday shall not result in or relate to any request for additional workdays later in the school year. This exception does not apply for any employee working the teacher work year (or less) or to 230 day or teacher work year + days to equal 230 employees. 3. On days when students are released early for weather or other emergencies in any or all buildings, employees shall work their regular shift unless hazardous or unhealthful conditions, as determined by the Superintendent, exist. In such circumstances employees shall be released when notified by the Superintendent. 4. Whenever the administration delays the start of classes at some or all of the buildings, employees shall be expected to work their regular hours. Should it be necessary to make up the day, employees will be paid for the additional day. 5. If an employee is unable to report to work due to inclement weather, she/he may use any emergency day or vacation leave time provided to her/him under the contract. 6. When conditions develop during a day requiring the early closing of the offices, all office employees will be paid for a regular workday for their category. 7. If school is canceled and the employee has been approved for a paid leave day, paid leave time will not be deducted. An employee on unpaid leave of any sort shall not be paid for any day that is canceled due to weather or other emergency as referenced in “2”.
