Teachers on sabbatical leave shall be allowed credit toward retirement for time spent on such leave in accordance with the rules and regulations established by the Michigan Public School Employees Retirement Funds. While on sabbatical leave, seniority shall accrue. Upon returning from sabbatical leave, the non-tenure eligible staff member shall be restored to the same position or to a position of like nature and be placed on the salary schedule as the non-tenure eligible staff member would have been if he/she worked in the district during the sabbatical period.

Provided there are enough people who qualify for sabbatical leaves and apply for such leaves, the Board may grant three (3) such leaves per year with half pay to the teacher. Teachers granted a sabbatical leave will be required to sign a personal contract agreeing to return to the School District for the year immediately following the leave. Failure to return to the School District will require the teacher to repay to the School District with interest (be determined upon granting of leave) the amount of pay they received while on leave.
