Attention All Employees: If you have not yet completed the Transition Pay Options Acknowledgement Form, please do so by this Friday, December 3. This form will ask you to accept or decline a one-time pay advance available to all regular part-time and full-time employees. The advance, which will equal 80 hours of pay, will be distributed on January 31 and will need to be repaid by June 30, 2022. (Note: This one-time pay advance is related to our move to biweekly pay and is different from the one-time payment approved by the school board that will be added automatically to the December paychecks of all regular employees.)

Unsure whether you should accept or decline the payment? Please use our Pay Transition Calculators available on the ACPS Payroll Clarity Project page to determine if this payment would be a beneficial option for you. Helpful Hint: While you’re visiting the Payroll Clarity Project page, look for the Employee Information Packet, which includes printable instructions on how to use the Pay Transition Calculators plus information on other resources that can help you plan for our move to biweekly pay.

Still have questions? Reach out to your school or department’s Change Champion for assistance. (If you don’t know who your Change Champion is, ask your principal or department head.) You can also check out our Frequently Asked Questions web page or submit questions anonymously through our Payroll Clarity Project Questions Google Form.
