Human Resources

Kenton County School District is committed to providing a safe learning and working environment for all students and staff.  If a staff member is exhibiting symptoms of COVID-19 or other illness, the employee is expected to stay home and utilize existing leave balances.  In the event an employee is unable to report to work, because of a personal, active COVID-19 infection, the employee shall enter their absence into Frontline.  In general, employees’ available options to be absent from work (according to policies and regulations) due to COVID-19 infections could be:

• Sick Leave (Policy 03.1232 for certified / 03.2232 for classified)
• Personal Days (Policy 03.1231 for certified/ 03.2231 for classified)
• In some unique circumstances, FMLA could apply

If an employee has been placed in quarantine due to COVID-19 by a licensed treating physician, physician assistant, or advanced practice registered nurse, a public health department, or the Department for Public Health, and has exhausted all accumulated sick leave, the employee should contact Human Resources to discuss other leave options and documentation requirements (Policy 03.12323 for certified/ 03.22323 for classified).
