The Board may, upon request from said employee, extend such leave for an additional one (1) year period. An employee returning from an approved leave of absence within one (1) year will notify the Board prior to the return date and will be reassigned by the Superintendent to their former position. Employees returning after one (1) year (extended illness excluded) shall be assigned to their former position or a similar position.
