The Board authorizes paid holidays for all support staff members as determined by the administrative guidelines.

All support staff members shall be paid in full for approved holidays if such support staff members have accrued earnings on their preceding and next-following scheduled work days before and after a holiday or were properly excused from attendance at work on either or both of those days.

The Superintendent may require the support staff member to work on a holiday when, in his/her opinion, failure to do so would impair public safety.
