Time Off

Legacy utilizes Skyward to track time off. However, employees who may require a substitute in their absence must also use Frontline.

Time Off Rules

Full Time employee receive are allocated 5 State Days & 5 Local days on the first day of the academic year to utilize throughout the school year.
Time off is provided in advance based on the projected work days.
- - - If employee does not work all projected work days, time off allocation will be prorated to the actual amount earned.
State and Local days can only be utilized in full (1.00) or half-day (0.50) increments..
If an employee wishes to avoid a dock in pay when a leave balance is present, an Acknowledgement of Time Off Policies form must be signed and on file with the district.
- - - Employees are only required to sign this form once while employed with LPCA and it can only be revoked in writing.
Absences are managed utilizing two separate platforms contingent upon an employee's role within the district. Those platforms are:
- - - Skyward Employee Access - For employees who do not need subs in their stead.
    - Frontline Absence Management - For employees who need subs in their stead. - These employees should ALWAYS begin time off request in Skyward.
Please review the absence training for more information on how to request time off as well as how to maneuver through each system.
