[Mail_supt] Calamity Days and Negotiations

[Isaac Seevers]

We are in the process of negotiating with our teachers. They have requested language that clarifies how we are handling calamity days going forward since the law has changed from days to hours and calamity days no longer are provided under the law. Our current certified language says they are paid to work 183 days. Our current practice is to have all staff members make up after 5 days whether we make them up with kids or not, like the old system, because that language was still in our Classified Agreement. 
Has anyone negotiated with their employees since the change from Days to Hours and worked on Calamity Day or School Cancellation language? 
Does anyone require teachers to report to work on cancellation days?
Does anyone allow staff members to make up lost work time, due to cancellations, through other avenues?
Thanks for any help you can offer.
