PAY DAY SCHEDULE
Regular payroll checks shall be issued each month, semi-monthly, on the fifteenth and/or the last working day for the School District. The Superintendent shall be authorized to issue employee paychecks prior to holidays (i.e. Thanksgiving and/or Christmas). The amounts paid for the remaining work days in the month of each pay period shall be debited from amounts that have been credited during the school year for summer checks. The money paid shall not be considered an advance payment made by the School Board.
For 9-, 10-, and 11-month employees, their first payroll checks for the current fiscal year shall be issued semi-monthly, on the fifteenth and/or the last working day for the School District, due to the fact that their last payroll check from the previous School Year/Fiscal Year is issued on August 31st (or the last work day thereof).
Effective with the 2015/2016 School Year/Fiscal Year, all new hire employees in the District (commencing employment prior to August 15th) shall receive their initial payroll check commencing with the August 31st payroll. Thereafter, their annual salary shall be divided into twenty-four (24) pay periods, to receive their first check on August 31st (or the last work day thereof) of the current fiscal year and their remaining twenty-three (23) payroll checks at regular semi-monthly pay periods.
