to your summer payroll.

Just like last year, an Oracle Access ID is required to use the system. The selected employee name and identification number is also needed from the summer employment application form.

Employees must be selected using the Summer Employee Entry System in order for them to appear on the summer program payroll. Please confirm that the summer program student enrollment supports the number of teachers being selected.

2.

Therefore, employees may be released from summer positions at any time should the funding or enrollment not support the continuation of the position. As much advance notice as possible will be given.
