Continuing Personal Illness. If an educator is unable to perform his duties because of a continuing personal illness and has exhausted accumulated sick leave benefits, the President will, upon the presentation of a physician's statement verifying such personal illness, grant the educator an additional period of sick leave of up to five days beyond the benefit that has been accumulated. In instances where the additional benefit authorized by the President is not sufficient to cover the period of extended illness without loss of salary, the Board of Trustees may, upon the presentation of a physician's statement attesting to a continued personal illness which could preclude satisfactory job performance, grant full-time educators additional sick leave, with pay up to six months or up to the time that long-term disability insurance becomes effective--whichever is sooner. Such authorization shall not be unreasonably denied.
