School district practices that encourage teacher absenteeism - Personnel Management
School Administrator, June, 2003 by Evan Pitkoff
Remedies: Districts should make their schedule and potential weather-related calendar policies clear and available for all school employees in advance. Teachers should be warned to have trip cancellation insurance available for vacations that could potentially conflict with school being in session. Teachers should not be allowed to take vacations during the time when school is in session.
