Employee Sick Leave Bank. When any employee of the District is unable to work due to a personal catastrophic illness or injury and has exhausted all available paid leave to which he/she is entitled, that employee may apply for additional paid sick leave days from the sick leave bank. The employee may receive additional leave from the bank up to the number of work days remaining in the school term during which his/her available paid leave is exhausted, assuming those days are available in the bank. Employees are allowed to draw from the bank only for one continuous personal illness or injury and only after they have exhausted all other available paid leave.

A voluntary donated sick leave bank is established to provide additional paid leave for participating employees who have exhausted their accrued leave as a result of a catastrophic or extenuating illness or injury to self, or an immediate family member. The Bank serves as a depository to which participating employees may voluntarily contribute leave for allocation to other participating employees. The purpose of the Bank is not to provide unlimited paid leave for any medical reason, but to alleviate the hardships outlined above. Employees will be given an opportunity to donate to the Bank every year. Days will be donated between the first day of school and September 30th. When necessary, additional donations may be requested by the APT Executive Board. Only employees who donate to the Bank are eligible to apply for benefits from the Bank. At the time of submission, the APT Executive Board may require substantiating medical documents, and in all cases, the decision rendered by the committee shall be final and binding. If approved by the APT Executive Board, these days will be presented without penalty or repayment. The decision of the APT Executive Board to approve use of the Employee Sick Leave Bank shall be communicated in writing to the Superintendent for record keeping purposes.
