Need Support?

All 10-month certified staff are on a prepaid schedule. Each check covers a period of 21.5 days (7.5 hours per day/37.5 hours per week.) For the 2024-2025 school year the August pay period is August 20th through September 18th AM and is paid on August 31st. Certified staff will receive 10 checks-August through May.

Teacher supplements are paid twice a year and equal 8% of earnings in their certified position with Davie County Schools. The first is paid in November (2.67%) and is included with the regular pay for November. The second part of the supplement is paid in June (5.33%) and is the only pay for that month.

Annual Leave

All permanent, full-time employees working or on paid leave for one-half or more of the workdays in any monthly pay period earn annual leave based on the rates shown below. A 7.5-hour day (37.5 hours/week) employee would earn 8.78 hours (1.17 days) of annual leave per month.  For 10-month employees the first 10 days of annual vacation leave (referred to as “forced annual leave”) are scheduled in the school calendar and must be taken as scheduled. Classroom teachers who require a substitute and teacher assistants who require a substitute may not take annual vacation leave at any time that students are scheduled to be in attendance.

Sick Leave

All permanent, full-time employees working or on paid leave for one-half or more of the workdays in any monthly pay period earn one sick day per month. Sick leave is accrued at a day per month for 10 months.

Personal Leave

Personal leave is earned by classroom teachers who require substitutes. In order to be eligible, the teacher must be in a permanent full- or part-time position. Personal leave is earned at the rate of .20 days for each full month of employment not to exceed two days per year. Personal leave must be used in one-half or whole day units.

A teacher who requests personal leave at least five days in advance shall be automatically granted the request subject to the availability of a substitute teacher. A teacher making the request cannot be required to provide a reason for the request if the request is made at least five days in advance. If the request is not made at least five days in advance and the teacher does not provide a reason for the request, the teacher shall receive full salary less the full cost of hiring a substitute for the teacher.

Parental Involvement in Schools Leave

All employees may take up to four hours of paid leave per year to attend or otherwise be involved in the school of a child for whom the employee is a parent, guardian or person standing in loco parentis. If the entire four hours of leave is used at one time, it must be on a day when no substitute is required.

The Three Most Important Things to Know:

1. Receipt money on the day you receive it.

2. Never keep money in your room overnight.

3. Only receipt money that is for your school. Don’t receipt money for cafeteria or other organizations (Example: PTO). If in doubt-ask.

How to Complete Your Receipts

• Use the “flap” under the yellow copy so receipts don’t bleed through.

• Individual receipts must be written for more than $2.00 collected per student.

• The date should be the date you are writing the receipt.

• The receipt should be written to the student, not the parent.

• Write the homeroom teacher’s name on the receipt if receipting for multiple classes.

• Write the full total amount paid in the appropriate space. (Write: $20.00 not $20)

• Include if payment was cash or check in the appropriate space.

• Write what the receipt was for – field trip/student fees/yearbook.

• Sign your name on the receipt, not your initials.

• For messed up receipts or skipped receipts, mark it void on the original and continue to the next receipt.

• Do not write on the carbon (yellow) receipt. The carbon should be an exact replica of the original.

• Always give the original (white) to the student and keep the carbon (yellow) in the receipt book.

How to Balance

• Total the receipts that you have written.

• Count your money.

• Be sure the total of the receipts and the money are the same.

• Put loose change in a baggy or envelope.

• When your bookkeeper is finished balancing and preparing the deposit she/he will retain the receipt book in her/his office. That is your receipt book’s home. Don’t keep it in your room.

 IMPORTANT – YOUR RECEIPT BOOK AND MONEY SHOULD BE TURNED IN TO THE BOOKKEEPER EACH DAY BY THE REQUIRED TIME.
