If the DEA President is a K-8 teacher, he/she shall be provided one release day per week to conduct association business.
Release Days. 1. All contractual release days shall still be provided. Teachers will provide asynchronous assignments for the day. A substitute shall provide a morning Google Meet in elementary school for purposes of attendance, review of the daily schedule/expectations, and instruction to support learning. For EAT and upper grade release days, grade levels will make every attempt to take their release days on the same day to allow the classes to share the same substitute and minimize the number of substitutes required by the District to cover the release days. Special Education unit members shall coordinate with their site administrator(s) for their release days.
Release Days. The Association has up to ten (10) release days per year to conduct Association business, four (4) which may be purchased by paying the district the prevailing substitute rate at the time of the request.

The local Association president and officially elected delegates or alternates may attend the annual NEA/OEA Representative Assembly as professional days. The Board is not obligated for any expenses related to the NEA/OEA Representative Assembly except to provide release time. No member who has missed seven (7) or more days of work during the school year due to personal illness or personal leave at the time the leave is requested will be eligible for Association leave or personal leave for Association business. The Superintendent has the right to waive this in exceptional circumstances.
