Short Term Leaves and Project Grants Sample Clauses

Applications may cover a wide range of activities, subject to priorities identified and published by the Board. The activity must be one, which contributes to the professional growth of the individual and to the Stamford School System. Such short term leaves and project grants should be carried on during periods of time when other duties do not interfere with the purpose of the leave or project. Thus, short term leaves will normally require that a substitute perform an applicant’s regularly scheduled duties. With respect to project grants it is recommended that proposals be restricted, whenever possible, to those, which can be carried, out during the summer or holiday periods. Types of Awards: Applications will usually encompass a wide variety of purposes including experimental projects involving development of teaching methods and materials, curriculum improvements, teacher student relationships, subject matter research in one’s field of specialization, and other professional activities. All such projects should be limited, whenever possible, to work during summer and holiday periods. If necessary, project grants during summer or holiday periods may be combined with short term leaves during the school year.
