I follow the Marana Unified School District school calendar for any closures related to EMERGENCIES or WEATHER ONLY.  There are no makeup days for emergency closures.  https://www.facebook.com/maranaschools

 

If the school district states Late Start I will be open but may be delayed and will text parents for updates. I am open normal schedule for teacher professional days, conference weeks and summer break.  School staff see modified schedule under teacher page information.

​

BEREAVEMENT/FUNERAL:

If I need to attend funeral services, I may take up to a week of paid leave. This is an unusual circumstance and is not part of the vacation/personal time. In 27 years of caring for families I have never had to take time off for a funeral.

​

VACATION/PERSONAL TIME OFF (PTO):

My vacation/personal time off (PTO) accrues 1.5 day per month for every one enrolled. I use this paid time off throughout the year. Unused days carry over into the next year’s contract if not used. Any and all unexpected closures for any reasons will use up vacation/personal time first. I have 2 emergency Deep Clean Days and or necessary training included in the rates. This is to cover having to close the daycare for a serious outbreak that requires hours of sanitizing and cleaning everything. 

​

Providing childcare is my career choice. I take my career seriously. I am not a babysitter. I take very little time off after being available to families for up to nearly 65 hours a week. Employers provide paid vacation time, sick leave, family medical leave, 401K, retirement packages, bonuses, health insurance, etc.  Vacation/personal time is all I have to help me stay fresh and available to care for children. My rates are pro-rated to reflect my time off.
