Regular attendance is essential in providing District students with a high quality of instruction. Eligible certificated staff will have available 12 days of paid time off (PTO) leave per school year cumulative to 60 days. Eligible support employees have available between 10 and 15 days of PTO leave per year cumulative to 60 days.  Number of days for support employees is dependent on the number of days worked. 

When employees are absent more than 6 days in any semester or more than 12 days per school year, their absence is considered excessive. The Superintendent/designee will review each incident of excessive absence and may require the employee to provide medical documentation or may consider disciplinary actions up to and including termination.
