STAFF MEMBERS
GCQERetiring
Individuals retiring from employment with the District are required to submit written notification to his/her supervisor with the effective date of retirement by completing the resignation or retirement notice.
See Policy GCQC; Resignation of Professional Staff Members. The terms and conditions of these policies apply to support staff personnel unless a written policy stating a contrary intent is included.
For the purposes of this policy, a retiree is a District employee who has elected to retire from the Arizona State Retirement System (ASRS). During the year prior to the year in which retirement will occur, the employee must submit a written request of intent to retire by January 31.
Tips for making your transition into retirement easy:
A. Create an online account with Arizona State Retirement System (ASRS) and access the "Member Education" section of the portal for more information and to setup individualized one-on-one sessions with a representative.
B. Consider discussing with the District the possibility of continuing employment after retirement.
