SPECIAL/COMPASSIONATE LEAVE. It is understood that the provisions contained within Article 12 may, in special circumstances, not be sufficient or reasonable, keeping in mind the interests of the Teachers and the Board. Further, it is understood that to attempt a categorization of circumstances where special compassionate leave may be properly granted is not desirable. Therefore, the Board recognizes that leaves of absence may be appropriate in circumstances not defined by this Article. A Teacher may apply for a special compassionate leave of absence of definite or indefinite duration, only after having exhausted the provisions of article
