Continuing Education Credits. As an incentive for teachers to upgrade their skills at workshops and seminars approved by the administration, the Board shall add a personal leave day for each fifteen (15) hours of actual workshop or seminar attendance. (For example: A teacher gets approval to take two classes on computers that meets four sessions each, at two hours per session. This totals sixteen hours of time. This makes the teacher eligible for one leave day in accordance with the following paragraphs.)
1. A personal business day shall be given on a day with mutual consent of the administration and shall be labeled “Continuing Education Credit Day.” All workshops and seminars eligible for these CEC’s shall be at the expense of the teacher and outside of the school day.
2. Should a teacher elect and get approval to take a university credit class under this provision, then only the completion of a class that shall meet for fifteen (15) hours or more shall be counted for one Continuing Education Credit Day.
3. The Superintendent or designee shall have the authority to award CEC units to teachers on a prorated basis whenever a teacher or teachers shall be requested to attend a workshop or seminar. The prorated portion shall take into consideration the time of the workshop or seminar, the financial involvement of the district and or the teacher in the workshop or seminar, and other related conditions that would warrant an award of CEC credits to the teacher(s).
4. A maximum six (6) days credit may be accumulated for a period not to exceed twenty-four (24) months duration. Failure to use these accumulated days within the above noted time limit will result in a payment of $50 per day if a request for payment is submitted in writing by the teacher prior to June 1. It is understood that in special circumstances more than two (2) consecutive days may be granted only with the approval of the Superintendent.

(Example: CEC time earned in September 2010 will expire on the last teacher day in June 2013.) All CEC time earned after the last contractual teacher day will be credited to the teacher in the upcoming school year. (Example: CEC time earned on June 19, 2010 will be credited to the teacher’s CEC bank for the 2010/2011 school year.) CEC time will only be credited provided the teacher has submitted the proper verification of attendance. The MyLe...
