Use of Vacation Days. Vacation time cannot be accumulated from year-to-year except with the supervisor's approval and must be scheduled with prior approval of the Employee's supervisor. Vacations must generally be taken each year between the dates falling one week after school closes for the summer recess and one week before school re-opens in the fall. The Superintendent may grant an exception to this rule provided the Employee requests such in writing. In case of conflict on vacation days requested, priority will be granted on a seniority basis.
