NYC Teachers: Childcare leave? (Kind of long...)
I am due to give birth on 12/24. If I go on or around that date, I will not have to return to work until early April. I am thinking of taking my 14 weeks FMLA (it gets extended b/c of the December and Feb. breaks ) and then the rest of the semester as a childcare leave.
My question is: What happens to my summer pay if I take April, May and June off as a childcare leave? I worked almost the entire Fall semester and I will be on payroll until March 1 when my CAR and grace period runs out. Do I still get paid/benefits for july and august?
I know I have to talk to my payroll secretary, but I was wondering if anyone had the inside scoop...
(We totally need a payroll secretary on this board! )

Okay, so this happened to me just this past summer.
Your summer pay will be effected. I was off from Sept 27-December 6. My total summer pay was 2,000 less because of it. The summer pay is pro-rated for the total number of days you worked that school year.
And my payroll secretary didn't even tell me this!

It will be effected but I don't know how much. I took off from sept. and went back in feb. ,my check was GREATLY effected. It may not be bad but look into it before you decide.

Thanks ladies! Did it affect your benefits at all?

I took off from Jan 7th to June 1st.
Becareful because if they take you off payroll (which with a childcare leave they do) you will NOT get a summer check at all. They will just pay you what they owe you in September.
This happened to me. Payroll closed May 22nd for the year and I came back in June so I was never put back on it. I had to beg and cry for them to issue me a special "check" for the time I had come back and the summer.
IF you are not going back at all for the rest of the school you it will be a problem for you.
