Is there an exception for local educational agencies?
A local educational agency or school and a private elementary or secondary school are considered employers that must provide leave under FMLA to eligible employees. There is no exemption under the FMLA for schools or educational agencies based on the number of employees. However, the special nature of the schedule for these employees makes it necessary to allow employers to place certain restrictions on intermittent leaves or reduced leave schedule requests for these employees.
