Other Benefits
New hires that meet eligibility criteria are eligible for a state retirement pension plan. There are two plans, School Employees Retirement (SERS) for classified staff and Teachers Retirement (TRS) for certificated staff.
Your eligibility will be determined based upon the position you are hired into. In general terms, if the position you are hired into requires you to work more than 70 hours per month for 5 months during a 12-month period over two consecutive years, it is likely eligible. You will receive more information on eligibility upon employment. If your position does not meet eligibility criteria, you may be able to purchase service credit.
