Ease of administration is the primary consideration for payroll deductions, other than those required by law.  Payroll deductions are made for federal income tax withholdings, Iowa income tax withholdings, social security, and the Iowa Public Employees' Retirement System.

Employees may elect to have payments withheld for professional dues, and district-related and mutually agreed upon group insurance coverage. Requests for these deductions will be made in writing to the superintendent. 

It is the responsibility of the superintendent to determine which additional payroll deductions will be allowed.

The requirements stated in the Master Contract between employees in a certified collective bargaining unit and the board regarding payroll deductions of such employees will be followed.
