Dock Days. Members of the certified staff are under a contracted period of obligation of 182 days or more per year for performance of professional services. The Board of Education does not encourage dock days as an approved form of leave. It is important to note that mere willingness to lose pay does not permit one to be absent arbitrarily. However, in rare circumstances this might be the only type of leave available to the teacher. In order to take a dock day, specific written reasons shall be forwarded to the Superintendent. The Superintendent will approve or deny the request for dock days. Taking dock days without prior approval could result in disciplinary action.
