Compensatory time will be granted to professional staff who are required to perform duties beyond the normal work day or outside the adopted work calendar.

All duties or assignments qualifying for compensatory time, and the actual time off, must be approved in advance by the county superintendent. The use of compensatory time on days when schools are open will be discouraged.

Compensatory time off may not exceed ten (10) days per contract year. Compensatory time cannot be carried over from one (1) contract year to the next contract year (a contract year is August 1st through July 31st). Seven (7) working hours constitutes a day.
