Such reimbursement shall occur within fifteen (15) days after distribution of each unemployment check to said teacher. Voluntary leaves will not be granted to teachers who while on leave will receive compensation for work performed excepting work as part of a professional development project, a university work study program, or in the best interests of the School Corporation.
