Each employee has the option of coverage for dependents at his or her own expense. Dependents must be added within the first 30 days of employment to avoid showing proof of insurability.

Deductions In accordance with state law, school employees contribute 7.05% of their gross earnings to the Teacher Retirement System(TRS), with 6.4% accruing to retirement benefits and .65% accruing to the TRS retiree’s group insurance program. Retirement Program For active members, Senate Bill 9 lowers the age at which they become eligible for retirement. Members with 30 years of service may retire with full benefits at age 50, effective September 1, 1995. A new employee must wait 90 calendar days before they can become members of TRS. A new employee is a person who does not have an active account with TRS. An employee who was previously a TRS member and returns to work in any school is not a new employee. A person who has withdrawn an account, however, is a new employee for this purpose. Staff Organization The Superintendent of Schools is elected by the School Board to be the chief administrator of the district’s educational program. The principals are approved by the Board upon the recommendation of the superintendent and are responsible for anything pertaining to his/her school. All other professional, paraprofessional, and educational support personnel are immediately responsible to the building principal for carrying out Board policies. It is most important that this chain of command and authority be followed in handling school-related affairs. Teachers are encourage and expected to discuss school related problems with their principals and the grievance policy for the district is expected to be followed. Information on grievance procedures may be obtained from the Superintendent, the Assistant Superintendent, campus Principals, Custodial Director, Food Service Director and the Transportation Director. Professional Ethics Staff members of the Mildred Independent School District are expected to adhere to the Code of Ethics and Standard Practices for Texas Educators, issued at time of employment with Mildred ISD. These Ethics and Standards are Texas Association of School Boards Policies. The common goal for our professional existence is to offer the students of this district the most comprehensive educational opportunities possible. To accomplish this goal, it is necessary that each educator strive to be the very best professional possible. See addendum attached titled “EMPLOYEE STANDARDS OF CONDUCT” Contracts
