1. You can apply to use the banks primarily using the DCPS Leave of Absence Process through DCPS Website and apply using the DCPS process that is outlined therein for FMLA and ADA LOA Requests. 
2. DCPS will make determinations for FMLA and/or ADA eligibility and provide guidance on the leave that can be used through a preliminary approval award letter.
3. The FMLA award letter will be automatically sent to the WTU Leave Bank Review Committee by DCPS. The committee will meet 2x per month (1st and 3rd week). The Committee is made up of 3 WTU members (appointed by the WTU President) and two DCPS members (appointed by the DCPS Chancellor) who will approve Leave Bank usage.
4. Messaging will then go out to let everyone involved in the process know how much leave is available to use.
