Get money for your saved days
If you are a team member who is thinking about retiring this year, keep in mind that Dallas ISD compensates retiring employees for unused local days through the Retirement Service Award program.
Per district policy DEC (REGULATION), the Retirement Service Award incentivizes those employees planning to retire and provides the following benefits to the district:
- The district has advance notice of retiring employees to better plan for upcoming vacancies
- Teachers who do not use their local days are in the classroom educating students rather than absent;
- Teachers being in the classroom, means a decrease in the demand for substitutes on campuses, which is a budget savings.
Employees who notify Human Capital Management of their plans to retire in Oracle Self-Service by May 1, 2025, will receive a flat daily pay rate for unused local days accrued by June 15, 2025. The RSA is paid on the July 15 paycheck.
Information to participate in the RSA Program will be communicated through multiple channels, including email, WAIP, The Beat, and the Dallas ISD Benefits website.
