Employees may receive compensation, in addition to their salaries, through the assignment of additional supplemental duties. Stipends are assigned by the Principal, Department, or the Compensation Department. The additional compensation is typically prorated and paid in monthly increments through- out the school year. Otherwise, a stipend may be paid as supplemental pay annually or biannually.
Employees are responsible for communicating any missed stipend assignments to compensation during the school year in which the stipend should have been assigned. Stipend assignments are not retroactive to prior school years.
The assignment of duties aligned with a stipend is intended to compensate teachers for performance of those duties in the school year assigned; continuation of the assignment for the following year is subject to change and dependent on availability of funding. Assignment of a stipend to a non-teacher, if not already defined in this section, requires approval from both the department executive and the Director, Compensation.
