Purchasing service if layed-off

editor — Fri, 15 Jun 2007 18:43:35 +0000

As this is lay-off/recall time in many school districts, I just thought I would remind Presidents that members who have been laid off can purchase the time they are on a recall list.� You may want to share the following info with any of your members who find themselves in this quandary plus file a copy of it in Section 8 of your Benefits Binders:

Purchasing Layoff Periods
You can purchase periods of layoff as a general leave of absence if you were placed on a recall list and didn�t return to work, or if you returned to work for the same or different employer and worked less than your previous assignment. You must apply to purchase this service before your recall rights expire.

Calculating the Cost
The cost of a leave of absence is based on your current full-time equivalent salary, multiplied by the length of the leave period, multiplied by:
� the current employee contribution rate (9.16% as of July 1, 2007) – this applies to maternity, parental and adoption, and compassionate care leaves, or
� the current employee and employer contribution rates (21.45% as of July 1, 2007) – this applies to general leaves

School Closure Third Reading delayed

editor — Wed, 13 Jun 2007 18:45:13 +0000

At the Board meeting last night the School Board passed a motion to delay the third reading of the by-laws which may have closed two schools this Summer to March 11, 2008.� This would allow them to look at the whole District and form a committee to look at the “vision” for the District.

This means staffing will be going forward as of Thursday afternoon, so please watch for postings.� If you need information, please call the office at 627-1700.
