Unidentified speaker (Wayne Memorial teacher) described 24 years at the district, prepared a long-term substitute and lesson plans before taking medical leave, and said she learned via colleagues that HR posted her full-time social studies position while she was on chemotherapy. She said the posting made her fear losing her job, asked the board to reconsider practices for employees needing more than the mandated 12 weeks of FMLA, and requested basic courtesy (advance notice).
