According to the details of the case the teacher requested this around 2 years after being hired. She also requested a total of 3 weeks of unpaid leave, while the haij is only a week. Even adding 2 days for travel means 3 weeks is a bit much.
The requirement is also only 1 haij during ones lifetime, IF ONE CAN DO IT. The haij can only be done during a certain time, which happens to fall during the school year usually.
It really depends upon the contract the union has with the city. This is also different then asking for a day here and there. 3 weeks of a substitute teacher is a long time.
A little more than $1450 for that district for 3 weeks.
sans her pay the school is saving money
Ok, so the nudists should be allowed to come to work naked because it is their belief.
NO, not unless emergency leave. I understand Eric Holder, DOJ is taking this case?? lol...Sharia Law coming to a neighborhood near us?
Shariah Law will be in every US court within 10 years, bank on it.
Not unless the constitution is repealed, High Gravity. You foresee that happening?

Gawd.... please NO

Why is it we are bending over backwards to see it the teachers way?
Why not just accept that the school district said NO? The teacher can find another job if thats not acceptable. Im sure Allah will provide a new job... its in the name of Islam right?

Oh, she didn't want to be paid while gone? Really? I didn't see that in the article. They are going to suspend her benefits too? If not, they are not saving money.
A teacher I worked with yesterday has been working for the district for 8 years. She is from Ethiopia, wanted to visit her dying grandmother over Christmas break. She asked in September for the 2.5 extra personal days, (she was leaving yesterday evening and worked only a.m.). It took them until 10/20 to ok the sub time, though she has to pay it herself-out of pocket. They paid for the 2 days she is entitled to.
Has nothing to do with religion, has everything to do with contracts, municipalities being very low on funds, and fairness to students and other staff.

she asked for almost three weeks of unpaid leave to perform the Hajj.

Gawd.... please NO
Why not? if your going to let Muslims have special treatment for their beliefs, the nudists should get to come to work naked.
I haven't read all 8 pages yet, but has anyone noted WHO is suing on her behalf? Not the ACLU. The FEDERAL govt. Maybe a lawyer can chime in and let us know how big of a precedent this will be if she wins.
And any teacher on here can attest to the fact that the students get a bit whacked out when a teacher is out one day. Three weeks? Good Lord. Write that time off. And prob. A few weeks after.

Have you seen most of the teachers?

you did miss it...i don't know about benefits, but pay alone, the school will save money or at least break even as i have no doubt she makes more than the sub....
do you deny that no other teacher has ever been given at least a 3 week leave...paid or unpaid.....?

Well you can't give special privileges to one group of people and accomodate their culture and blacklist everyone else, so the nudists should get to come to work naked.
If she wins her case it will be because of some dumb liberal judge.
To a radical unAmerican communist/ socialist like yourself Jack Flake.
Our judicial system is a joke and only works correctly when it goes your way.

In second year of teaching? No, other than for illness or care for sick immediate family member. You are an attorney, right? Could you afford that for an employee?
That district is k-5, I suppose we'll see how often they've given that level of time for 'pilgrimages' or religious time off-paid or unpaid. I do know that substitutes, no matter how qualified cannot take the place of the regular teacher. Sometimes necessary, but unless taking over for the year, it's still 'biding time.'
