Senior Deputy Director of Legal Services Jennifer A. Hardin and Staff Attorney John Price discuss a retiring school employee who would like to be rehired into the same position they are leaving. What technical aspects must school boards consider before deciding if such a rehire is advantageous to their district?

Board members or district employees who would like more information about rehiring retirees can check out this fact sheet on the topic. 

If you have questions about rehiring retirees, please contact us on the legal hotline at (855) OSBA-LAW. If you have comments or suggestions for future Legal Ledger Sidebars, feel free to contact anyone in the legal division. We welcome your ideas.
