Teacher Page. In accordance with longstanding past policy and practice, the first two days of Passover (Tuesday, April 15 and Wednesday, April 16, 2014) are NOT SCHEDULED AS HOLIDAYS since it has been contrary to policy and practice to schedule holidays that would result in a workweek limited to two non-consecutive work days; most recently it occurred in 1993, 2004, 2007, 2010, and 2011.
In future years these two days will remain paid holidays for employees (i.e., when scheduled on weekdays except when their scheduling results in a workweek limited to two non-consecutive workdays), except for "prevailing wage rate employees" subject to Section 220 of the New York State Labor Law and managerial/confidential employees, i.e., pedagogic managers not covered by a collective bargaining agreement (even when receiving benefits through the CSA), all administrative managers, and employees in Original Jurisdiction (OJ) titles receiving benefits through the City of New York Management Benefits Fund (MBF).
