ASK US: You Asked. We Answer. 

This week’s quesiton to Ask Us: 

Is there any way that Loving School staff could get paid for the three days the school is closed during the break between Christmas and New Years without having to take PTO, Work on Residential, or have it unpaid? I would understand having to take PTO if the school wasn’t closed, but since it is, it makes sense to make sure the staff get paid during a much needed break to reset for when the kids come back to class. It would be truly helpful to not have to stress about having enough PTO, it being able to travel to see family because of the way the holidays fall, and/or having to go with no pay if PTO has run out due sickness, as this is always the time of year sickness is going around.
