§ 1312 County School Employee Transfer

This law says that county workers who are assigned to the school superintendent’s office or to the board of education stop being county employees and start getting paid from the school fund when their jobs move to a separate school budget.

Key Takeaways

  • •County staff in the superintendent’s office become school‑fund employees once a separate budget is set up.
  • •Staff moved to the board of education also stop being county employees on the transfer date.
  • •After the change, all pay comes from the county school service fund, not the county payroll.

Example

Jane works for the county as a clerk in the superintendent’s office. When the office gets its own budget, she is no longer a county employee and her paycheck now comes from the county school service fund.

Because the superintendent’s office now has its own budget, Jane’s job moves out of the county payroll and into the school fund, just like the law says.
