Section 4.15.040. Sick leave.

	(a)  Districts shall credit, without limit, sick leave with pay to all regularly contracted, certificated personnel in a manner consistent with the following provisions:  
		(1) sick leave is accrued at the rate of one and one-third days for each calendar month or each major portion of each calendar month of actual service;

		(3) a teacher may use accrued sick leave for leave due to personal injury or illness without limitation concerning the duration of usage;

		(5) a teacher is not entitled to reimbursement for accumulated sick leave except as service credit toward retirement.  
	(b)  A false statement by a teacher regarding sick leave is sufficient grounds for cancellation of the contract and revocation of the certificate.  
	(c)  In this section, "immediate family" includes at least the following:  
		(1) husband and wife;  
		(2) father and son, or daughter;
