  3. What is a 110? • PERA currently allows retired employees to work 110 days in a calendar year. The exception is a 140 day rule effective in 2010. District 6 will not participate at this time in the 140 option due to budget reductions. • The fall semester is less than 110 days. • The spring semester falls in the next calendar year, and is also less than 110 days. • So, retired teachers may teach ONE school year while collecting their retirement benefit as well as their teaching salary. This is sometimes called “double dipping.” District 6 has two different 110 plans.

  4. 110 plans have pros and cons. You DO make a lot more money for one year But, the “110” year does not count toward your PERA service credit. This may reduce your retirement benefit. It’s important to understand the options to make the best decision for YOU.

  5. Choosing the 110A • Requests are due to H.R. by MARCH 1st. • Assuming your most recent evaluation was satisfactory, you may be accepted, and notification will be sent to you by March 15th. • You must rescind your intent to retire April 1. • Officially retire at the end of this school year, 2011-2012. • Begin collecting PERA this June 30th. • District insurance runs until August 31st. • Work next year as a “110-er” • Starting in September, you may purchase COBRA insurance if you wish.

You may buy COBRA insurance if you wish. • You’ll have 10 days leave for any purpose (bereavement, discretionary, sick…) • No access to Sick Leave Bank or Donated Days • You may sell back unused days at 35% of sub pay • You will receive your step advancement and may request • Horizontal Advancement, contract permitting
