The purpose of this program is to allow administrators the opportunity to take a leave of absence from their position in order to engage in a special project, study, or travel. Objective Sabbatical leave benefits the institution, the students and the employee. The District began the Sabbatical program in 1980 as a means of supporting administrative development. Employee Eligibility Full-time administrators with seven or more consecutive years of service in the District are eligible for consideration. College deadlines are earlier.
Applications are due the year preceding the academic year for which the leave is requested.
Cost The District pays a percentage of the salary during a sabbatical. For long-term sabbaticals, administrators may receive full pay for up to one semester. A participant must agree to serve the District at least two years immediately after the leave is taken. Applicants may obtain and complete an application form. Application forms should be submitted through the supervisor to the President's Office.
