PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
NRS 391.166, passed by the 23rd special session of the Nevada State Legislature, requires the Board of Trustees of each school district in Nevada to establish a program of incentive pay for
licensed teachers, school psychologists, school librarians, school counselors, and administrators employed at the school level which are designed to attract and retain those employees. The
program of incentive pay must specify the type of financial incentives offered and the Interim Finance Committee must approve the recommended incentives. Financial incentives must not
be more than $3,500 per year. This budget also contains the grandfather provisions of the 1/5th retirement credit purchase program (previously NRS 391.165). Personnel participating in the
1/5th purchase program in fiscal year 2007 could elect to continue until they had received five 1/5th credit purchases at which time they would be eligible to participate in the incentive
program mentioned above. Statutory Authority NRS Chapter 391.166; AB1 23rd Special Session.
BASE
This request continues funding for the purchase of retirement credit and incentives for licensed education personnel.
