Notwithstanding a request to extend an unpaid leave of absence, a teacher not notifying the district of their intent to return to work the following school year by April 15th, will have their name removed from the seniority list at the end of that workday. In the event the teacher plans to return to the beginning of the second semester or third trimester, having been out the previous semester or trimester, a letter must be directed to the office of the Superintendent at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of the first semester or second trimester of their intent on returning to work.

The grievance procedure (Article III, D 3) requires the employee to work during the pendency of any grievance.
