The Association President will be granted released time up to a half day with the Association bearing the cost of that part of the salary equivalent to the amount of released time.

However, the Association shall reimburse the school district as follows: The percentage of the President’s school contract day from which he/she has been released to work for the Association shall be referred to as the “release time percentage.” The Reimbursement Amount is calculated as follows: • First, determine the sum of what the district pays to the President in gross salary and employer contributions, including FICA, PERSI retirement, PERSI retirement sick leave, workers’ compensation insurance premiums and employee fringe benefits.
