If a collective bargaining agreement that provided a complete school calendar were in effect as of May 1, 1999, for employees of a school district, local act school district, public school academy, or ISD, and if that school calendar did not comply with the bill, then the above provision would not apply to that district, academy, or ISD until after that collective bargaining agreement expired.
