          3:1.2 A grievance does not apply to any matter which (1) a method of review is prescribed by law or State Board Rule having the force and effect of law, or (2) a complaint of a member which arises by reason of his/her not being re-employed, or (3) a complaint by certified personnel occasioned by appointment to, or lack of appointment to, retention in any position for which tenure either is not possible or not required.
          3:1.3 A grievance to be considered under this procedure must be initiated by the employee within twenty (20) calendar days of its occurrence or within twenty (20) calendar days after the employee would reasonably be expected to know of its occurrence.
3:2 Conditions

          6:8.1.1 commencing while the pregnant employee is physically able to effectively perform her duties and continuing through the period of a pregnancy-related disability; or

            6:8.5 Following the grant of such leave, the employee may request a reduction of maternity leave. Such request shall be in writing to the Superintendent. The Board may grant such proposed reduction. The Board may require the employee to produce a certificate from her physician stating that she is physically able to work effectively at her assigned duties.

            6:8.6 The Board may require an employee during her pregnancy to produce certificates from her physician stating that she may continue working effectively at the duty to which she has been assigned.

            6:8.8 Nothing stated herein is intended to restrict the right of the Board to remove any pregnant employee from her duties if it should determine that her performance has substantially decreased from the time immediately prior to her pregnancy or for any other just cause.

            6:8.9 Any employee shall be granted maternity leave for the entire academic school year in which the maternity leave began.

            6:8.10 Any employee under tenure or who has received a tenure-year contract shall, upon timely request made in her original application, or by March 1st, be granted maternity leave for an additional academic school year. An employee on such maternity leave shall notify the Board in writing by March 1st of the school year proceeding the school year in which she is scheduled to return to active employment of her intention not to return to active employment. Such notification, or failure to begin active employment when due to return, shall be deemed a resignation from the District.

            6:8.11 Employees on maternity leave shall not accept full-time employment in any other teaching or secretarial staff position. This does not prevent such employees from accepting employment as per diem substitutes in other school districts.

            6:8.12 Any employee on maternity leave may place her name on the substitute list and shall receive the substitute’s per diem rate for which she is qualified, provided that she produces a certificate from her physician showing that she is physically able to perform such duties.

            6:8.13 Subject to any law, an employee may not apply accumulated sick leave to any period of disability arising after a voluntary maternity leave has begun.

            6:8.14 Time spent on maternity leaves of absence shall not count toward salary guide placement experience, sick leave accumulation, etc.
        6:9 Adoption Leave -
            Any employee may apply for a leave in the case of adoption by such employee of a child four (4) years of age or younger under the same terms as the maternity or child care leave above; except that the sixty (60) day notice in 6:8.3 hereinabove shall be an intent notice, and actual notice shall be presented when the employee has notice of the actual adoption. If the child is more than four (4) years of age, such leave may be granted at the sole discretion of the Board. Adoption leaves shall begin upon the employee’s receiving de facto custody of the infant child, or earlier if necessary to fulfill the requirements for the adoption.

            Child rearing leave without pay will be granted upon Board approval under the following procedures:
            All initial applications for child rearing leave shall be made in writing to the Superintendent. Such written requests shall specify the date when the employee wishes to begin or end leave. Under normal conditions, the beginning and end of such leave shall be on a semester basis.
