Operational Guidelines. 1. Effective August 2006, all current District teachers and all new hires shall automatically belong to the Sick Leave Bank unless the teacher completes and submits the opt-out form to the sick bank chairperson prior to August 15 of each year. The decision to not participate may be reversed within seven (7) school days after August 15. After this time period, the decision is permanent. Only teachers who contribute the assessment will be eligible to participate in the Bank. Membership is effective until Sick Bank days are depleted, and an additional assessment is made. If Sick Bank days are depleted, the Sick Bank Board will require one (1) additional day be donated to the Bank by each member. Teachers, who do not belong to the Sick Leave Bank, may not join the bank until the next open enrollment period during August of the following school year.
