Cobb Sick Leave Policy

In the past couple of days I have received numerous calls regarding the new sick leave policy. I spoke with the district in an attempt to clarify the new policy. It says that sick leave that is NOT prior approved will count against you. Once you reach 7 days that you have called in for (not pre-arranged), then the principal will implement progressive discipline. This does NOT mean you automatically go on PDP or get an NI on your evaluation. It does mean you will, at the Principal's discretion, get a letter of concern, a letter of direction, or even a warning. The district arrived at this number, 7, but averaging the number of days that all teachers missed in one year and then that number was adopted, the number 7. Please let me know if you have a question or you feel your principal isn't following this plan. The policy can be found at this link.
