Common use of Snow Days Clause in Contracts

Snow Days. When notification has been made by public media or supervisory personnel that school and/or administration offices are closed and that the employee need not report to work, as many as two days each year shall be available as a district-designated holiday. A district-designated holiday is a day on which notification has been made by public media or supervisory personnel that school and/or administration offices are closed, that the employee need not report to work, and is a day of service that will not be provided to the district at a later date. If a day of service is subsequently scheduled on another day, compensation received for the district-designated holiday will be charged to the subsequently scheduled day. An employee absent on the subsequently scheduled day shall utilize appropriate leave or vacation benefits or will be deducted salary for that absence. An employee who works on a district-designated holiday will receive pay for the holiday. When notification has been made that school and/or offices are to be closed and an employee has already been compensated for both district-designated holidays, then secretarial/clerical employees will not report for work and will not be paid for the day or days that schools are closed. However, a remaining vacation day or days may be used upon written request of an employee in lieu of salary deduction for days missed in excess of both district- designated holidays.
