Tuition Reimbursement

  • The мÓÆÂÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÙÍø tuition reimbursement form is mandatory when applying for tuition reimbursement.  Additional forms, required by a university, do not grant you entrance into the мÓÆÂÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÙÍø tuition reimbursement program. This form is for courses taken between September 1st and August 31st of each academic year.

    Pre-approval is required. Before enrolling in the class, submit the completed tuition reimbursement form, along with a copy of the course description, to the Human Resources Department.  A copy of the tuition reimbursement form will be returned showing whether your request is approved or denied.  You may then enroll in the class.

    After completing the course, send a grade report and receipt showing you made payment/partial payment towards the class.  Deadline to submit documents is November 1.

    The maximum reimbursement is $450.00 per credit and the maximum number of credits per academic year is nine (9).

    Note:  The actual amount to be paid is contingent upon the total requests received from the bargaining unit.  Reimbursement will not be paid for courses that were not pre-approved by the Director of Human Resources or failure to submit all completed paperwork by the deadline.  If the employee leaves the school district within one (1) year after issuance of the tuition reimbursement check, he/she must reimburse the employer within ninety (90) days of his/her resignation.  The last paycheck issued to the employee shall be retained by the мÓÆÂÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÙÍø toward the reimbursement.

    Please refer to your CBA for more information.
