Question: Are there school districts that pay traditional teachers (teaching September-June) twelve monthly payments beginning in July and ending in June? If so, how do they handle STRS reporting?
Response: For districts that pay what is referred to as "10 pay 12thly," STRS requires that all retirement contributions be taken out on a 10thly basis, that is, that the STRS is paid in by the end of the fiscal year in June. (When a teacher is paid 12thly in this situation, the July and August payments are from the preceding fiscal year's work.)
