Combination of Sick and FMLA Leave. The staff member, after consulting with the District, may combine sick leave and, if eligible, unpaid FMLA leave sequentially, for a maximum of 12 weeks; up to 6 calendar weeks (nine consecutive calendar weeks for a C-Section) paid, as described in A) above, plus sufficient work weeks of unpaid FMLA leave, as described in B), to bring the total to 12. So, for example a staff member whose child was born in early January, could take six calendar weeks of sick leave, which would last until mid-February and be followed by up to six work weeks (30 work days) of unpaid FMLA leave; a staff member whose child was born in mid-May might take paid sick leave through the end of the school year, perhaps 3 weeks, depending on the school calendar for that year, and then take up to 9 work weeks, 45 actual work days, of unpaid FMLA leave at the beginning of the following school year; and a staff member whose child was born at the end of June would take no paid sick leave, but would be able to take up to 12 work weeks, 60 actual work days, of unpaid FMLA leave at the beginning of the following school year.
