Retirement and IT Updates

Retirement Reminder

Remember, this Friday, May 14, at 4:30 p.m. is the deadline for those who have decided to take advantage of the window that was opened to allow for late application for Davis District retirement incentives. It is important that a letter be received by human resources by that time. Allow extra time if you are relying on the post office or the pony. As always, we recommend that you discuss your individual circumstances with human resources (801-402-5122) or the Utah Retirement System (801-366-7770 or 800-695-4877).

IT Procedures

DEA and the District are working together to place educators identified for involuntary transfer as quickly as open positions can be identified. We have been asked if the potential exists for a reduction in force. Although we are confident that nearly all educators identified for IT will have a job next year, there is a possibility that some with specialized certification could end up without a placement. Should that happen, the RIF policy with some modification for the unusual circumstances we are facing might need to be used. The IT process will continue through June if necessary, but we hope those identified as IT will begin hearing about placement soon.
