Resources for Writing Your Sabbatical Report

The Sabbatical Report is due the semester following the completion of your sabbatical.

SABBATICAL PRESENTATION AND REPORT 

A. Each faculty member will complete the following during the semester after the sabbatical leave concludes:  

1. Before the end of week 6, submit a written sabbatical report to the Sabbatical Leave Committee for an initial review. The written sabbatical report (not to exceed 2 pages) will include a description of the sabbatical leave activity and a statement of how the objectives of the leave were met and how the faculty member will incorporate the results of the sabbatical leave to benefit the students, the department, and the District. 

Before the end of week 8, the faculty member will submit the written sabbatical report to the faculty member’s supervising administrator, who will confirm that the report sufficiently documents the completion of the sabbatical project and will forward the report to the office of Vice President of Academic Affairs, who will forward all sabbatical reports to the President/Superintendent and the Board of Trustees.

 

 2. Schedule a presentation of their sabbatical project, to take place before the end of week 14, at a department meeting, at a Professional Development Day session, as a part of a campus lecture series, or at some other venue in the District. The faculty member must notify the Sabbatical Leave Committee and the VPAA of the date and time of the presentation. 

 

B. Failure to submit the written report or to present the results of the sabbatical will be considered non-fulfillment of the sabbatical leave contract.  

Please submit your report as a word document
