Monthly Paid Employees

Monthly paid employees include teachers, administrators, school and central office support staff, instructional assistants, public health attendants and assistants, and technical staff.

Monthly-paid employees are paid "current month" for regular duties and pay day is the last business day of the month. For example, a one month pay period beginning on November 1 and concluding on November 30, is paid on the last business day of November. Please be aware that the last business day of the month may not be the same as the last school day in the month. The only exception to this schedule is in December when the payday is the last school day prior to the winter holiday.

Pay for any additional duty positions/jobs such as curriculum development, test proctoring, etc. are paid one month in arrears and in a separate payment. For example, if you worked additional duties during the month of September, your time sheet is due October 1 and your pay will be received on the last business day in October.

Monthly paid employees are defaulted into the electronic pay advice program and will be e-mailed their pay advice 4 days prior to payday.

Your Pay

Monthly paid employees are paid gross wages in equal amounts over the length of their contract/work year.

• 10 month employees are paid from September through June in equal installments of 1/10th of their contracted salary and have all benefits and other deductions taken over 10 months.
• 11 month employees are paid from August through June in equal installments of 1/11th of their contracted salary and have all benefits and other deductions taken over 11 months.
• 12 month employees are paid from July through June in equal installments of 1/12th of their contracted salary and have all benefits and other deductions taken over 12 months.

Monthly paid employees are not required to complete time sheets for regular hours worked but must submit a leave slip to the work locations for annual, personal and/or sick leave used.

Monthly paid employees generally must complete time sheets or other paperwork for additional duty positions/jobs in order to receive pay for such work.

Receiving Pay During Non-Contract Months

Employees who do not work 12 months of the year, but are interested in receiving money during the non-working months, can do either of the following:

1. Allow FCPS to save money under our "Summer Fund" option:
   
   FCPS will withhold a set percent of each paycheck so that you receive nearly level pay throughout the year, including the months when you don't work. Under this plan, you cannot access this money early. Your pay advice shows the balance of this account throughout the year. It is then disbursed in one installment for 11-month employees in July or two equal installments for 10-month employees in July and August. No taxes or deductions are withheld at the time this disbursement is made. All new monthly-paid employees are automatically enrolled in this program.
   
   
2. You may transfer funds via direct deposit to a "Savings Plan" of your choice.
   
   You can designate a flat dollar amount to be withheld from each regular payment and transferred to a financial institution of your choosing. This allows you to earn interest on your money and save for your own summer pay. You withdraw your money when you need it. This savings plan option is available in addition to the current options to have a flat amount direct deposited to the Apple Federal Credit Union and your net pay direct deposited to your primary bank account.

To stop your participation in the "Summer Fund" program, or re-enroll if you had previously opted out, complete the Summer Fund Withholding Authorization Agreement (Form FS73-13)and submit it to the Office of Payroll Management by October 1 of the year you wish to make the change. [Top]
