Contributions to the Sick Leave Bank a. When the sick leave bank was originally established, each teacher contributed two (2) sick days to the sick leave bank. The Board also contributed two (2) sick days for each teacher to the sick leave bank. As of the first day of work each newly hired teacher shall contribute two (2) sick days to the sick leave bank. The Board will also contribute two (2) sick days to the sick leave bank for each newly-hired teacher.
b. When the sick leave bank falls below sixty (60) days, the Board shall assess each teacher one day of his/her sick leave. These days taken from teachers will be matched by the Board. Teachers with no sick days left to donate will make up this deficit as soon as they again have sick days available.
c. If an emergency situation arises and a request for additional days is made by the Sick Leave Bank Committee, teachers may donate up to ten days each of their accumulated sick days to the sick bank. A teacher may donate up to twenty of his/her accumulated sick days to the sick leave bank when he/she retires or leaves the district.
d. Teachers withdrawing sick leave days from the bank will not have to replace these days except as a regular contributing member of the bank.

Whenever the number of days in the bank is reduced to equal or less than the number of unit members, each unit member shall contribute one additional sick leave day from the individual’s sick leave accrual.

An accounting of the balance of the sick bank will be provided to the NTA by October 15 of every school year. The accounting will include the number of days in the sick bank, the number of current unit members, and the number of days used since the last accounting.
