[blocks in formation]

After the plan has been in operation long enough for leave to be accumulated it would be possible for all absences indicated in table VI to be covered by leave, except the last absence listed of 962 days.

The third year after the legislation is in effect those teachers with 15 years of experience in the public schools of the District of Columbia at the time of the passage of the bill and who have accumulated 35 days of sick leave will receive the leave for the absences indicated according to the following table:
