Sick leave may accumulate up to One Hundred Forty (140) days unless an employee has already exceeded One Hundred Forty (140) Days. If an employee leaves the district before the end of the school year and if they have taken more sick days than they have earned, they shall reimburse the district to cover the overpayment. At the end of each school year, teachers may choose to turn in half of their remaining sick days, with a maximum of 4.5 accumulated sick days, at their daily rate of pay. The other half of their sick days would carry over to the following year not to exceed 140 days. Teachers not completing a full school year shall have their annual sick leave for that year prorated. If a teacher leaves the district and has taken more sick time than earned, the teacher shall repay the district for the time taken beyond the time earned. When personal sick days are needed beyond what an individual has accrued, those additional days shall be deducted from the teacher’s pay. The leave days may be taken by a teacher in half-day increments for the following reasons and subject to the following conditions based on current court decisions.
